parvata In the Rigveda and the Atharvaveda is con­joined with giri in the sense of ‘hill’ or ‘mountain.’ From the Rigveda onwards it is common in this sense as connected with the waters of rivers which flow in the hills. The legend of the mountains having wings is already found in the Samhitās. In the Kausītaki Upanisad are mentioned the southern (daksiηa) and the northern (uttara) mountains, evidently in allusion to the Himālaya and the Vindhya ranges. The plants (osadhi) and aromatic products (añjaηa) of the mountains are referred to in the Atharvaveda, and their mineral treasures in the Rigveda.
parvata In one passage of the Rigveda denotes, according to Ludwig, a sacrificer whose generosity is praised But it is probable that the god Parvata, the spirit of the mountain, is meant.
parvata Is mentioned several times in the Aitareya Brāh­mana along with Nārada. The Anukramanī (Index) attri­butes to him the authorship of several hymns of the Rigveda.
