Lopamudra (लोपामुद्रा) combines the Sanskrit lopa (one whose) and mudra (form). **Lopamudra (c. 8th c. BCE)** was the Vedic poet-sage, wife of the sage Agastya — **author of Rig Veda 1.179**, a hymn-dialogue with her husband, where she presses him to balance his ascetic practice with married life. **One of the named female composers (Rishikas) of the Rig Veda.**
Featured in the Rig Veda Book 1.
Lopamudra reduces to four — the number of Vedic Rishika.
