Denotes a 'large wooden sacrificial ladle' (used for pouring clarified butter on the fire) in the Rigveda and later. It is of the length of an arm, with a bowl of the size of a hand and a beaklike spout.
As opposed to Sruc, denotes in the ritual literature a small ladle used to convey the offering (Ajya) from the cooking- pot (Sthālī) to the large ladle (Juhū). In the Rigveda, however, it was clearly used for the actual Soma libation.
Is the name of a drink which is mentioned first in the Atharvaveda, and which was distinct from both Surā and Soma, but was intoxicating. According to Mahīdhara, the liquor was made from flowers (Puspa). Zimmer thinks that it was the family drink, and this is supported by the fact that in the Atharvaveda it twice occurs as a household beverage.6 Hillebrandt is of opinion that it was very much the same as Surā.
