Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)

Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammar

Upasthita (उपस्थित).—A word used father technically in the sense of the word इति (iti) which is used in the Krama and other recitals when Vedic reciters show separately the two words compounded together by uttering the compound word first, then the word इति (iti) and then the two compound words, e.g. सुश्लोक ३ इति सु-श्लोक। विभावसो इति विभा-वसो (suśloka 3 iti su-śloka| vibhāvaso iti vibhā-vaso). The Kāśikā defines the word उपस्थित (upasthita) as समुदायादवच्छिद्य पदं येन स्वरूपे अवस्थाप्यते तद् उपस्थितम् । इतिशब्दः । (samudāyādavacchidya padaṃ yena svarūpe avasthāpyate tad upasthitam | itiśabdaḥ |) Kāś.on VI.1.129. The Ṛk-Prātiśākhya explains the word rather differently, but in the same context.The word after which इति (iti) is placed is called upasthita e.g. the word बाहू (bāhū) in बाहू इति (bāhū iti) or विभावसौ (vibhāvasau) in विभावसो इति (vibhāvaso iti) as contrasted with स्थित (sthita) i.e. the word without इति (iti) e.g. बाहू (bāhū) or विभावसो (vibhāvaso), as also contrasted with स्थितोपस्थित (sthitopasthita) i.e. the whole word विभावसो इति विभा (vibhāvaso iti vibhā)sवसो (vaso) which is also called संहित (saṃhita) or मिलित (milita); (2) occurring, present; cf कार्यकालं संज्ञापरिभाषम् (kāryakālaṃ saṃjñāparibhāṣam) . यत्र कार्यं तत्रोपस्थितं द्रष्टव्यम् । (yatra kāryaṃ tatropasthitaṃ draṣṭavyam |) Par.Śek. Pari.3.

Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Upasthita (उपस्थित) refers to “that which has taken place (lit. ‘befallen’)”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.16 (“Brahmā consoles the gods”).—Accordingly, as the Gods said to Brahmā: “O lord of the worlds, thanks to the boon received from you. The demon Tāraka is very haughty. Driving us out with force he has taken possession of our positions. Is it not known to you what misery has befallen us [i.e., upasthita]? Please dispel our misery quickly. We seek refuge in you. He torments us wherever we happen to stay by day or at night. Wherever we flee we see Tāraka. [...]”.
