andhatamas

Pāṇiṇi this form would not be correct, as he wants the

compound to become andhatamasa; it occurs however in the fol-

lowing introductory verse of the comm. on the Kirātārjunīya:

taddivyamavyayaṃ dhāma sārasvatamupāsmahe . yatprasādātpralīyante mo-

hāndhatamasaśchaṭāḥ. (Comp. andhakārasañcaya.)] E. andha and tamas.
