Sanjna
Hindu · deity · vedic · Recorded classification
Her parentIds name Tvashtr, who is added in block V of this batch, on the Vedic identification of Sanjna with Saranyu the daughter of Tvashtr — which the alt-name list carries and which the record should be read as asserting only that far. Weight is medium because the treatment consulted describes her through Chhaya rather than in her own right, and because the Sanjna–Saranyu identification, while standard, is an identification.
