The Religion and Philosophy of the Veda and Upanishads v1.c15.30

v1.c15.30

² RV. iv. 42. The meaning of x. 124, which is taken by some as showing the decline of Varuṇa, is obscure; Oldenberg, *Rel. des Veda*², pp. 95 ff.; Hillebrandt, *Ved. Myth.* iii. 67–71, who distinguishes Varuṇa from the father Asura here mentioned, but see Güntert, *Der arische Weltkönig*, p. 207.
