rambha	Seems to mean a ‘ staff ’ or ‘ support ’ in one passage of the Rigveda. In another place a man is described as Rambhin, apparently as carrying a staff to support himself in old age; Sāyaṇa explains this word as ‘ door-keeper ’ (like one of the senses of dandin, ‘ staff-bearer,’ in later Sanskrit).
