Now-a-days there have been lots of changes in the area of Information and Communication Technology. Computer scientists have turned to apply Information and Communication Technology in Indian Languages especially in Sanskrit. Some Machine Translation projects from Sanskrit to other Indian Languages have been taken by many institutions. The Information and Communication Technology and Computational Linguistics community are interested in the field of Sanskrit lexicography tradition and indexing.Though various efforts are being relied on to build word-nets and indices on traditional Indian heritage texts, but till now only a few works have been carried out. So, it demands serious attempt for generating a cross-referential indexing system for Indian intellectual tradition. This work is an attempt to create a lexical resource for Brihadaranyaka Upanishad and it is available at It gives multiple outputs of any key word of Brihadaranyaka Upanishad with reference locator and external references. Thus, it is helpful for readers and researchers to find out the references of Brihadaranyaka Upanishad and other intellectual texts in an easier way
