e. g. in the Vārtt. to Pāṇ.: kṣubdhaṃ manthābhidhāna iti vaktavyam;

or svāntaṃ mano'bhidhāna iti vaktavyam; or dhvāntaṃ mano'bhi-

dhāna iti vaktavyam; or avātābhidhāna iti vaktavyam; or Pa-

tanj. to Pāṇ.: kaḥ punarvīpsārthaḥ . anavayavābhidhānaṃ vīpsārthaḥ .

anavayavena dravyāṇāmabhidhānameṣa vīpsārthaḥ; or in the Nyāya

S.: arthādāpannasya svaśabdena punarabhidhānam; or in the Mī-

mānsā S.: guṇābhidhānātsarvārthamabhidhānam; or Sāhityad.:

(nāndī) pūrvaraṅgasya raṅgadvārābhidhānamaṅgamityucyate.--In writ-

ings on the Mīmānsā philosophy abhidhāna or abhidhāyakatva

are used sometimes in opposition to vidhāyakatva, when the

former imply such expressions or passages in the Vedas

as do not contain a vidhi or injunction, but merely a

description or explanation; the word becomes in such cases

a synonyme of anuvāda q. v.; e. g. Mīmānsā S.: vidhi-

mantrayoraikārthyamaikaśabdyāt . api vā prayogasāmarthyānmantro

'bhidhānavācī syāt; Jaiminīyanyāyam.: devāṃśca yābhiryajata

ityākhyātaṃ tu mantragam . vidhāyakaṃ na vānyena samatvāttadvidhā-

yakam . yacchabdādeḥ kṣīṇaśaktirna vidhistrividhaṃ tataḥ . ā-

khyātamabhidhānaṃ ca pradhānaguṇakarmaṇī (comm.: ayaṃ mantra ā-

mnāyate . devāṃśca yābhiryajate dadāti ca jyogittābhiḥ sacate

gopatiḥ saheti .…tatra yathā brāhmaṇagatamākhyātapadaṃ pra-

tvamityapyasti tṛtīyaḥ prakāraḥ . tato na mantragatākhyātasya vi-

dhāyakatvam).--Comp. also bahvabhidhāna (in the sense of ba-

huvacana). ² A proposition, a rule, an axiom; (this seems

to be the sense of the word in the comm. on the Vājas.

Prātiś. 4. 141., where abhidhāna would imply the axiom or

law taught by the Sūtra; comp. the preceding words tasyai-

taducyate). ³ The same as abhidhā II. 2.; e. g. Kāvyapr.: lakṣa-

ṇātmakameva dhvananam . tadanugamena tasya darśanāt . na ca tadanu-

gatameva . abhidhānāvalambanenāpi tasya bhāvānna cobhayānusāryeva.

or sukhaviśiṣṭābhidhānādeva ca; or Jayamangala in the comm.

on the Bhaṭṭik.: samaśabdenopamāyā abhidhānāt &c.; or

Bharatas. in his comm. on the same: vṛddhikriyayostulyakā-

layorvavṛdha ityanenābhidhānāt. ⁵ Speech, discourse. ⁶ A vo-

stadādi nūnaṃ dadhati parisphuṭamarthato'bhidhānam; or Jaimini

Sūtra: uktaṃ kriyābhidhānaṃ syāttadabhāve prasiddhaṃ syāt; comp.

is mentioned by the Siddhāntak., but apparently restricted

to the meanings given under 2., for the Gaṇaratnam. which

mentions the word in the Gaṇa ardharcādi--Pāṇ. II. 4. 31.

--explains it abhidhānaṃ or abhidhāno nāma śabdaśca.]

3. f. (-nī) (ved.) A rope, a halter; (thus explained by

Kaiyyaṭa when speaking of the meanings of dhā with abhi,

viz. abhipūrvastāvaddadhātirbandhanoccāraṇapratipādaneṣu vartate . a-
