Noun [Sanskrit]

IPA: /ɐ́.su.ɾɐ/ [Vedic], /ˈɐ.s̪u.ɾɐ/ [Classical-Sanskrit]
Etymology: From Proto-Indo-Aryan *Hásuras, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *Hásuras, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ń̥suros. Related to असु (asu-), with several possible etymologies and meanings. In the context of asura conventionally associated with asu- in the sense of "master of the house". This meaning is not further narrowed by its etymology: cf. Avestan 𐬀𐬵𐬎 (ahu, “lord; life, existence”) and 𐬀𐬵𐬎𐬭𐬀 (ahura, “lord”), Hittite 𒈗 (ḫaššū, “king”), Old Norse æsir (“gods”) and Old English ōs (“god”). Possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ens- (“to engender, beget”). The Brahmanas and the Puranas derive asura from another asu-, "breath", a cognate of which is found in Av. ahu-, "life, existence". In yet other post-Vedic Sanskrit literature, asura was back-formed as a-sura, "non-sura", with sura then associated with a group of gods who inhabit Indra's domain.

In the context of asura conventionally associated with asu- in the sense of \"master of the house\". This meaning is not further narrowed by its etymology: cf. Avestan 𐬀𐬵𐬎 (ahu, “lord; life, existence”) and 𐬀𐬵𐬎𐬭𐬀 (ahura, “lord”), Hittite 𒈗 (ḫaššū, “king”), Old Norse æsir (“gods”) and Old English ōs (“god”). Possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ens- (“to engender, beget”).\nThe Brahmanas and the Puranas derive asura from another asu-, \"breath\", a cognate of which is found in Av. ahu-, \"life, existence\". In yet other post-Vedic Sanskrit literature, asura was back-formed as a-sura, \"non-sura\", with sura then associated with a group of gods who inhabit Indra's domain.",

In the context of asura conventionally associated with asu- in the sense of \"master of the house\". This meaning is not further narrowed by its etymology: cf. Avestan 𐬀𐬵𐬎 (ahu, “lord; life, existence”) and 𐬀𐬵𐬎𐬭𐬀 (ahura, “lord”), Hittite 𒈗 (ḫaššū, “king”), Old Norse æsir (“gods”) and Old English ōs (“god”). Possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ens- (“to engender, beget”).\nThe Brahmanas and the Puranas derive asura from another asu-, \"breath\", a cognate of which is found in Av. ahu-, \"life, existence\". In yet other post-Vedic Sanskrit literature, asura was back-formed as a-sura, \"non-sura\", with sura then associated with a group of gods who inhabit Indra's domain.",
