    abhicakṣaṇa Tatpur. I. n. (-ṇam) (ved.) (Probably.) A magic

    power, a magic remedy; (comp. saj with abhi, abhiṣakta,

    abhiṣaṅga, bhiṣakti, bhiṣaj); Atharvav.: yau te balāsa tiṣṭhataḥ

    kakṣe muṣkāvapaśritau . vedāhaṃ tasya bheṣajaṃ śīpudrurabhicakṣaṇam.

    E. cakṣ with abhi, kṛt aff. lyuṭ.

    II. m. f. n. (-ṇaḥ-ṇā-ṇam) (ved.) (Probably.) Indicating,

    pointing out, making clear; Atharvav.: yāvatīrdiśaḥ pradiśo

    viṣūcīryāvatīrāśā abhicakṣaṇā divaḥ &c. E. cakṣ with

    abhi, kṛt aff. yuc. (This would be the E. according to

    Pāṇ. III. 2. 149., when the word must form a fem. in ā,

    and be udātta on the last syllable; but if the present ed.

    of the Atharv. is correct, there is an irregularity in the ac-

    centuation, for the word is udātta on the third syllable,

    i. e. it is accentuated like the neuter, formed with lyuṭ,

    although the fem. is not in ī; but perhaps the aff. is lyu.)
