the Bhaṭṭik. (abodhi duḥsthaṃ trailokyam): trailokyaṃ nihanmi

yasminhanyamāne'pi sītādruho'pi naśyanti . ityabhiprāyeṇa

(from this reason) duḥsthamabodhi; or Ved. Sāra: idamajñānaṃ

Pāṇini: svaritañitaḥ kartrabhiprāye kriyāphale (Kāśikā: kartāraṃ

not real, a semblance; e. g. Ṛgv. Prātiś.: vivṛttyabhiprāyeṣu

ca pīvo annāṃm̐ rayivṛdhaḥ ‘amongst the semblances of hiatus’

(i. e. amongst sandhis of final vowels and beginning semi-

as such); or …abhiprāyāṃśca paripādayanti. E. i with

kaścid viśeṣo vā 'bhiprāyo vā nānākaraṇaṃ vā. Based

on use of Pali adhippāya (= Skt. abhiprāya) intention,

but also difference; on the latter mg. see CPD s.v. The

old Buddhist word adhippāya was Sktized, keeping this

new mg. in addition to its normal Skt. mg. Compare with

Divy passage the Pali, ko viseso ko adhippāyo kiṃ

nānākaraṇaṃ MN i.64.23--24.
