বিশেষ্য

प्रभा (prabhā́) f

1. light, brilliance, radiance, splendour, lustre, luminosity
   • c. 400 BCE, Bhagavad Gītā 7.8:

     रसोऽहमप्सु कौन्तेय प्रभास्मि शशिसूर्ययोः। प्रणवः सर्ववेदेषु शब्दः खे पौरुषं नृषु॥

     O son of Kuntī, I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and the moon, the syllable oṁ in the Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether and ability in man.

   • c. 700 CE – 900 CE, Bhāgavata Purāṇa 10.85.7:

     कान्तिस्तेज: प्रभा सत्ता चन्द्राग्‍न्यर्कर्क्षविद्युताम्। यत्स्थैर्यं भूभृतां भूमेर्वृत्तिर्गन्धोऽर्थतो भवान्॥

     The glow of the moon, the brilliance of fire, the radiance of the sun, the twinkling of the stars, the flash of lightning, the permanence of mountains and the aroma and sustaining power of the earth — all these are actually you.

2. beautiful appearance
3. sunlight
   • c. 700 CE – 900 CE, Bhāgavata Purāṇa 4.31.16:

     एतत्पदं तज्जगदात्मनः परं सकृद्विभातं सवितुर्यथा प्रभा। यथासवो जाग्रति सुप्तशक्तयो द्रव्यक्रियाज्ञानभिदाभ्रमात्ययः॥

     Just as the sunshine is nondifferent from the sun, the cosmic manifestation is also nondifferent from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Personality is therefore all-pervasive within this material creation. When the senses are active, they appear to be part and parcel of the body, but when the body is asleep, their activities are unmanifest. Similarly, the whole cosmic creation appears different and yet nondifferent from the Supreme Person.

4. the shadow of the gnomon on a sundial
