SAra
śāra , m. or nt. (= AMg. sāla; perh. read śāla ?), either ‘the 77th planet, named śāla’, or (more probably) ‘a celestial abode named śāla of the 8th Devaloka’ ( Ratnachandra , s.v. sāla, 7 and 8). In Mv i.231.4 ( vs ) read: ādityo (? next word uncertain; mss. vatavallo, which is metr. correct, or vadbalo) śāraṃ (or śālaṃ; mss. śāram) abhyudgato ( mss. atyudgataṃ; em. Senart ) yathākāśe, like the sun when it has arisen in the sky up to the śāra (śāla) . (On *śāra, a kind of bird, see sāra .)
