General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and SubjectsManoravasarpaṇa (मनोरवसर्पण) is the name, in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa, of the mountain on which the vessel of Manu rested. In the Epic the name is Naubandhana, but the view that it is alluded to as Nāvaprabhraṃśana in the Atharvaveda is now abandoned.
Source: Wikisource: A history of Sanskrit literatureManoravasarpaṇa (मनोरवसर्पण) is the name of a mountain corresponding with Nāvaprabhraṃśana, mentioned in the Atharvaveda, and corresponds with Naubandhana.—The Atharva-veda also mentions two other mountains of the Himālaya. One of these is called Trikakud, the "three-peaked" (in the later literature Trikūṭa, and even now Trikōta), through the valley at the foot of which flows the Asiknī (Chenab). The other is Nāvaprabhraṃśana (“sinking of the ship”), doubtless identical with the Naubandhana (“binding of the ship”) of the epic and the Manoravasarpaṇa of the Śatapatha-brāhmaṇa, on which the ship of Manu is said to have rested when the deluge subsided.
