[2]

अः Name of Vishnu (Virat-purusha—अ in ओम्).
Name of Shiva, Brahma, Vayu or Vaishwanara.

N[ote]. It is doubtful whether अः in the sense of Vishnu had in its origin any connection of dependence with अ, the first letter of the sacred syllable; both rather proceed from a single & common origin, अ to be, in the widest sense of the idea, being primal, all pervading, vague and indefinable. Hence it is applicable to any of the three great deities who occupy & represent infinite & universal being, Vishnu, Shiva or Brahma; by a natural figure emphatic of the sense of व्याप्ति it became applicable to Vaiswanara or Virat Purusha. By transference to the idea of pervasive life & movement to Vayu, the god of wind, breath & the life principle. Cf अन्, अनुः, अनिलः, प्राणः.

The first letter of the Onkára, representing material world being; from a to be, & bearing the sense of initial & pervasive being.

अ, अन्
(1) a negative prefix, expressing defect, absence or opposition.

(2) a prohibitive particle.

(3) an interjection of (a) address, O! (b) pity, Ah! (c) censure, Oh! Fie!

The idea of defect or disparagement or deprecation visible also in the root उ (ऊन etc) may derive (a) from the idea of unfinished & therefore imperfect being, (b) from the use of अ as a separative & therefore exclusive enclitic, lit. = let be, exclude that, not that.

अंश् 10 U. to divide, distribute, share.

The roots of the ch family are a subsection of the palatal group and have as their base of significance the guna of narrow & intense penetration, separation and fine distinction. In action their sense is to cut, split, divide, separate, in motion to dart, leap like the lightning, race, drop suddenly or dart up, throw, project, eject etc, any narrow or intense action or motion. From the sense of to cut off it comes to mean screen, hide or cover. We have छुप् in the sense of a sharp touch & by detrition of meaning simply touch, छोटिका (छुट्) snapping of thumb & forefinger. Applied to light it means a sharp glitter or intense light.
