The Kosa [verse 28] says, "Ara means lightness, quickness" Or, r, the mother of Devas, her sons are called Aras, ud, beyond, kirti, fame, her fame excels that of the Devas. Or, Ara, MangalA and other deities, ud, dispels, ie the utterance [of the name of Devi] dispel the influence of the bad deities such as MangalA, etc. Or, ud, the golden Intelligence which resides in the disc of the sun. The Sruti [ChA. Up. I.6.6], "He that resides in the sun, the golden person... His name is Ud"; aras certain kinds of weapons, ie Her fame is a weapon against the Person in the Sun. The Meaning is by worshipping Her one obtains fame excelling the fame of that Person. Or, Ara, the two lakes of nectar, ud, exalted, ie Her fame is equal to that of the two lakes. This is explained in the Sruti [ChA. Up. VIII. 5.4] :"In the city of Brahman, called AparAjitA [unconquerable] to be obtained by those who worship the qualified Brahman, there are two lakes of nectar resembling oceans by name Ara and Nya" The same is again explained by AcArya also in the Ved- Sutra {IV. 4. 22] :"There is non-return according to scriptures".
