Is Chhaya also called Sandhya?[edit]

Chhaya or Chaya (Sanskrit: छाया, romanized: Chāyā, lit. 'shadow' or 'shade') is the Hindu personification and goddess of shadow, also called Sandhya and a consort of Surya, the Hindu sun god.

is written in the article, but the source cited for it (https://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/cgi-bin/monier/serveimg.pl?file=/scans/MWScan/MWScanjpg/mw0406-chAta.jpg) is saying document not found. So, this text should be either supported with a new source or modified. Cvrr (talk) 08:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
