dant, member of retinue: adhyāvarā (acc. pl.; so all mss.,
Lefm. em. °carā) kṛtvana sarvadevān LV 395.9 (vs),
having made all gods my associates. CPD and PTSD suggest
emending the Pali form, also, to ajjhācara. But the two
forms confirm each other and must surely be kept, what-
ever the etymology of this rare and obscure word may be.
