    Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit Dictionary

    p. 50, col. 1.
    ? abhigṛhṇati (°āti; Pali abhigaṇhāti, overcomes,

    once, see CPD which suggests em. to adhi°), excels, sur-

    passes: Mv ii.307.6, mss. abhigṛhṇanti (buddhā, raśmi-

    bhiḥ), Senart em. ati° (but ati-grah- in this sense is rare

    and doubtful in Skt. and does not occur in Pali); in next

    line 7 Senart reads atigṛhyate with one ms., the other

    reads abhigṛhniṣu; a pass. seems required but perhaps

    abhigṛhyate is to be read.
