Rudra's sister, Ambik[=a), ib. 9, is another new creation, the genius of autumnal sickness.]
[Footnote 31: Çat. Br. ii. 2. 1. 21. How much non-serious fancy there may be here it is difficult to determine. It seems impossible that such as follows can have been meant in earnest: "The sacrifice, pray[=alja, is victory, jaya, because yaja = jaya. With this knowledge one gets the victory over his rivals" (ib. i. 5. 3. 3, 10).]
[Footnote 32: Although Bhaga is here (Çat. Br. i. 7. 4. 6-7, endho bhagas) interpreted as the Sun, he is evidently the same with Good Luck [Greek: typhlhos ghar ho Êlohhytos] or wealth.]

The reader must distinguish, in the name of Brahm[=a], the god from the priest, and this from brahm[=a), prayer. The first step is brahma-force, power, prayer; then this is, as a masculine Brahms=a], the one who prays, that is, prayer, the Brahman priest, as, in the Rig Veda, x. 141. 3. Brihaspati is the 'Brahm[=a] of gods.' The next (Brahmanic) step is deified brahma, the personal Brahm[=a) as god, called also Father-god (Praj(=a]pati) or simply The Father (pit[=a).]
