1. Mandhātṛ occurs in several passages of the Rigveda,[१] in all of which Roth[२] takes the word as merely an adjective used substantively, ‘the pious man.’ In one passage[३] the word, being applied to Agni, is thus used, but in another[४] Mandhātṛvat being parallel with Aṅgirasvat, ‘like Aṅgiras,’ is naturally to be understood as a proper name, which is probably also the sense of the word in the preceding hymn.[५] A different Mandhātṛ[६] may be meant in the first Maṇḍala,[६] where he is mentioned as a protégé of the Aśvins, and evidently as a king. To equate these persons, and make a Rājarṣi out of Mandhātṛ, as Ludwig[७] and Griffith[८] do, is unnecessary and improbable.
