(on the last two see Chap. 43, s.v. budh;
= Pali °bujjhati; very rare in Skt., recorded BR and pw
only once, ppp. °buddhaḥ, with atra, well skilled, learned,
enlightened on this matter, Mbh. Crit. ed. 3.178.27; the
pres. °bodhati implied in ger. °bodhitvā), (1) becomes
enlightened, attains complete enlightenment (i.e. becomes a
Buddha); the common meaning in BHS. Used absolutely:

vyam one ought to become enlightened Mv i.8.13; 229.10;
ii.133.11. Much more often with ‘cognate’ acc., regularly
anuttarāṃ samyaksaṃbodhim, unto supreme perfect en-
lightenment, the subject being a Buddha or other person:

37.25; °buddhaḥ with complement bodhim Mvy 6906;
saṃbodhim an-abhisaṃbuddho Mv ii.136.14; (on the same
ppp. in passive sense see below;) ger. °buddhitvā (anutta-
rāṃ samvak°) Mv iii.111.17; 272.18; 349.6; °bodhitvā Mv
i.312.18; ii.348.15 (here v.l. °buddhitvā); inf. °boddhu-
kāmena Samādh 8.1; instead of acc., loc. of same comple-
ment, opt. °buddheyaṃ (anuttarāyāṃ samyaksaṃbodhau)
LV 38.18, and ppp. °buddhaḥ Mvy 6355; the pres. °budhy-
ate, the ppp., and the gdve., are also used passively,
subject being anuttarā samyaksaṃbodhiḥ, and the person
put in the instr.: Vaj 37.8--9 (tathāgatena…) an°rā
samy°dhir abhisaṃbuddhā, supreme enlightenment was
attained, realized; so also SP 218.11--12; LV 377.2; Divy
393.9; pres. °budhyate Vaj 41.19; gdve. °boddhavyā Kv
18.18; note also the cpd. abhisaṃbuddha-bodhis (tathā-
gataḥ) LV 377.1, the T. having attained enlightenment;
(2) the verb is however also used (as in the isolated Skt.
occurrence noted above) in the sense of learns thoroughly,
becomes skilled in, comprehends perfectly: SP 210.3--4
asmābhir…tathāgatajñāne abhisaṃboddhavye (loc.
abs.), when the T. knowledge ought to have been realized
(thoroughly learned) by us; Ud xviii.18 (kāyaṃ) marīcidhar-
maṃ °budhānaḥ (so oldest ms., with Pali Dhp. 46; later
mss. paribudhya caiva, see paribudhyati), learning to
know (realizing) the body as having the nature of a mirage;
LV 263.21 nāsau mārgaḥ śakya evaṃ…°boddhum, that
Way cannot be realized (made the object of enlightened
understanding) in this manner; Bhīk 22b.5 kaccid evaṃ-
rūpaṃ sthānam abhisaṃbhotsyase? abhisaṃbhotsye, you
will learn perfectly such-and-such a point (of duty), won't
you? I will; (3) when the subject is dharma, and perhaps
in some other cases, it may not be clear whether the verb
means understands or illumines, makes clear; in Mv iii.314.1
dharmaḥ abhisaṃbuddho (said by the Buddha shortly
after his enlightenment) probably means the Law that I have
perfectly comprehended, but possibly made clear (to myself);
in Mv iii.331.10, 14 tathāgatenāryasmiṃ dharmavinaye
madhyamā pratipadā abhisaṃbuddhā, apparently the
middle course of conduct, perfectly illumined (made clear)
by the T. in the noble dharma (i.e. sūtras) and vinaya; Vaj
32.13 yas tathāgatena dharmo 'bhisaṃbuddho deśito
nidhyāto; Vaj 37.11--12 yaś ca…tathāgatena dharmo
'bhisambuddho deśto vā, realized (? made clear) or taught;
and (4) we even find, in a few curious passages in Vaj,
the complement anuttarāṃ (or °rā) samyaksaṃbodhim
(or °dhir), as in (1) above, with dharmaḥ…abhisaṃ-
buddhaḥ; the precise meaning is not too clear: Vaj 36.8--9
asti sa kaścid dharmo yas tathāgatena dīpaṃkarasya…
antikād anuttarāṃ samy° °bodhim abhisaṃbuddhaḥ
(repeated below), is there any principle which has been
realized (comprehended? made clear?), unto supreme perfect
enlightenment, by the T. (taking it) from D.? (the transl.
in SBE 49 pt. 2, p. 132 is very loose); Vaj 37.10--11 nāsti…
dharmo yas tathāgatenānuttarāṃ samy° °bodhim °bud-
dhaḥ: and with nom. of complement, Vaj 24.2--3 asti sa kaś-
cid dharmo yas tathāgatenānuttarā samy° °bodhir ity abhi-
saṃbuddhaḥ,…any principle which was realized as (?)…
(SBE 49 pt. 2, p. 118 known under the name of); perhaps
the nom. of the complement (apparently isolated) is a
corruption for the acc., used at least twice in such a phrase.
