Pushan
Pushan ((サンスクリット:पूषन), ') is a Vedic solar deity and one of the Adityas. He is the god of meeting. Pushan was responsible for marriages, journeys, roads, and the feeding of cattle. He was a psychopomp, conducting souls to the other world. He protected travelers from bandits and wild beasts, and protected men from being exploited by other men. He was a supportive guide, a "good" god, leading his adherents towards rich pastures and wealth. He carried a golden lance, a symbol of activity. ==Etymology== Traditionally, the name of the deity is said to be derived from Sanskrit verb, ''pūṣyati'', which means "cause to thrive". So, his name means, "one who causes people to thrive." In 1924, Herman Collitz suggested there might be a common Proto-Indo-European connecting Pushan to Pan and Faunus.〔 H. Collitz, "Wodan, Hermes und Pushan," Festskrift tillägnad Hugo Pipping pȧ hans sextioȧrsdag den 5 November 1924 1924, pp 574–587.〕 This root has been suggested to be '' *Peh2uson''.
