On the meaning of AV XIX.53.3: Measurement of Time?
نویسنده
چکیده
This mantra is the third r ̊ k of the sūkta (XIX. 53) in Atharvaveda. This sūkta and the next sūkta (XIX. 54) constitute the well known Kālasūkta-s which are theosophic and cosmogonic in character and have been studied by many scholars1–6. The mantra itself has been characterized as an enigmatic mantra “of incomparable beauty and suggestive force”5 in the Kālasūkta-s. Given below are the translations of various scholars, which are all based on the commonly accepted padavibhāga:

Estimating the Mode Shapes of a Bridge Using Short Time Transmissibility Measurement from a Passing Vehicle
This paper reports on the analysis of the signals sent by accelerometers fixed on the axles of a vehicle which passes over a bridge. The length of the bridge is divided into some parts and the transmissibility measurement is applied to the signals recorded by two following instrumented axles. As the transmissibility procedure is performed on the divided signals, the method is called Short Time ...
متن کاملRole of nitric oxide on the electrophysiological properties of isolated rabbit atrioventricular node by extracellular field potential during atrial fibrillation
Introduction: The aim of the present study was to determine direct effects of NO modulation on protective electrophysiological properties of atrioventricular node (AV node) in the experimental model of AF in rabbit. Methods: Isolated perfused rabbit AV nodal preparations were used in two groups. In the first group (N=7), LNAME (50μM) was applied. In the second group (N=12), different concent...

Objectives: Dual pathways have a determinant role in the occurrence of atrio nodal tachyarrhythmia (AVNRT). The aim of present study is to determine the role of slow pathway (SP) in the concealment zone and protective role of AV node during atrial fibrillation (AF). Material &Methods: In 7 isolated nodal rabbit preparation zone of concealment and concealed conduction is quantified by Specif...

The present study was aimed at assessing the ingestive behavior of ¾ Zebu × Holstein heifers confined to different levels of substitution of sorghum silage by marandu grass silage. Twenty heifers were used with initial average weight of 346.25 kg, divided into completely randomized experimental design with 5 repetitions and the following treatments: treatment 1) roughage fraction of the diet co...
متن کاملDynamic age-related changes of extracellular field potential of isolated AV-node of rabbit
Introduction: Developmental changes in atrioventricular nodal conduction time and refractoriness have been shown in several studies. Prevalence of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is clearly age-dependent. The purpose of this study was to determine developmental changes of basic and frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of the atrioventricular node (AV-node)...
