Noun
[edit]निषत्ति • (níṣatti) stem, f (Rigvedic)
- sitting down or resting idly; idleness, laziness, sloth
- c. 1700 BCE – 1200 BCE, Ṛgveda 4.21.9:
- भ॒द्रा ते॒ हस्ता॒ सुकृ॑तो॒त पा॒णी प्र॑य॒न्तारा॑ स्तुव॒ते राध॑ इन्द्र ।
का ते॒ निष॑त्तिः॒ किमु॒ नो म॑मत्सि॒ किं नोदु॑दु हर्षसे॒ दात॒वा उ॑ ॥- bhadrā́ te hástā súkṛtotá pāṇī́ prayantā́rā stuvaté rā́dha indra .
kā́ te níṣattiḥ kímu nó mamatsi kíṁ nódudu harṣase dā́tavā́ u . - Auspicious are your hands, your arms wellfashioned which proffer bounty, O Indra, to your praiser.
What sloth is this? Why did you not rejoice? Why did you not delight yourself with giving?
- bhadrā́ te hástā súkṛtotá pāṇī́ prayantā́rā stuvaté rā́dha indra .
- भ॒द्रा ते॒ हस्ता॒ सुकृ॑तो॒त पा॒णी प्र॑य॒न्तारा॑ स्तुव॒ते राध॑ इन्द्र ।
