Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

: Wisdom Library: Varāha-purāṇa

Vida (वि�).—Name of a settlement (janapada) situated near the seven great mountains on the western side of mount Naiṣadha, according to the ղ󲹱ܰṇa chapter 83. These settlements consume the water flowing from these seven great mountains (Viśākha, Kambala, Jayanta, Kṛṣṇa, Harita, Aśoka and Vardhamāna). Niṣadha (Naiṣadha) is one of the seven mountains located in Jambūdvīpa, ruled over by Āgnīdhra, a grandson of Svāyambhuva Manu, who was created by Brahmā, who was in turn created by Nārāyaṇa, the unknowable all-pervasive primordial being.

Vida (वि�) (Cf. Vākyavida) refers to “one who is learned� [?], according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.12.—Accordingly, after Himācala (i.e., Himālaya) brought his daughter (Pārvatī) before Śiva: “Then Śiva looked at her in the first flush of her youth. [...] On seeing Śiva the lord of all, the chief of those devoted to penance, the lord with the moon as his ornament, who can be known through spiritual insight and who was sitting in the meditative posture closing His eyes, Himācala saluted Him again. Though he was not disheartened, he entertained some doubts. Thus he, the lord of mountains, foremost of the eloquent [i.e., ⲹ-岹vākyavi� variṣṭha�], spoke to Śiva, the sole kinsman of the universe�.

Dietetics and Culinary Art (such as household cooking)

: Shodhganga: Dietetics and culinary art in ancient and medieval India

վḍa (वि�) or Biḍa refers to “black salt�, according to the Mahābhārata Anuśāsanaparva 91.41, and is commonly found in literature dealing with the topics of dietetics and culinary art, also known as 첹śٰ or 첹첹.—We cannot see any reference to the salt in Ṛgveda. But most of the non-Ṛgvedic Saṃhitas, Brāhmaṇas and Upaniṣads refer to salt in the name of ṇa or saindhava. Mahābhārata refers the non-usage of ḍa (ḍa) and black salt in ś ceremonies. According to Mahābhārata (Anuśāsanaparva 161.99), eating salt in the palms of one’s hands and eating salt at night should be avoided.
