Abhisaṃyuta (अभिसंयुत) refers to “being equipped” (with the many divisions of an army), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.16 (“The battle of the gods”).—Accordingly, as Jalandhara commanded the Asuras: “[...] All of you come out readily equipped (abhisaṃyuta) with many divisions of the army and different kinds of weapons. Be fearless and free from hesitations. O Śumbha, O Niśumbha, destroy in a trice the insignificant gods who feel nervous in the battle field. You are extremely valorous. [...]”.
