Rohiṇī and the three double asterisms Uttara-Phalgunī, Uttarā Aṣāḍhā, and Uttara-Bhādrapadā. In the Vedas the asterisms are considered to be the abodes of the gods or the visible forms of pious persons after death, see Sāyaṇa on Ṛg-veda I. 50, 2; in the later mythology the lunar mansions are regarded as the wives of the moon and daughters of Dakṣa; according to the Jainas, the sun, moon, Grahas or planets, Nakṣatras, and Tārās or stars form the Jyotiṣkas); a pearl; [cf. deva-n˚ and yama-n˚.]
