    anuloma mfn. (-maḥ-mā-maṃ) Regular, successive, with the hair or grain.

    anuloma I. Tatpur. 1. m. f. n. (-maḥ-mā-mam) In natural

    order or direction, regular, successive (liter. with the hair),

    the reverse of pratiloma; comp. e. g. pratilomānulomapāda-

    yamaka.

    2. m. (-maḥ) 1 A proper name; his descendants are called

    anulomāḥ or ānulomayaḥ (plur. of ānulomi); according

    to another authority, however, the name of the descendants

    ought to be anulomānaḥ or ānulomayaḥ (plur. of ānulomi).

    2 (In vaidik grammar; scil. anvakṣarasandhi) One of the two

    kinds of the Sandhi called anvakṣarasandhi q. v., viz. when a

    final vowel or the last syllable of eṣaḥ, syaḥ or saḥ is fol-

    lowed by a consonant (of a new word; the case in the latter

    three instances being similar to those of the meeting between

    a final vowel and a beginning consonant, since their Visarga

    is dropped). Compare pratiloma.

    3. m. plur. (-māḥ) scil. varṇāḥ; mixed tribes or castes;

    for the special meaning, in which this word is used, see

    anulomaja.

    4. f. (-mā) A woman of a caste inferior to that of the

    man; e. g. a Kṣatriyā woman when spoken of in reference

    to a Brāhmaṇa man. Comp. anulomaja.

    [5. (In Buddhistic literature the word anuloma expresses

    the regular order in which certain ascetic rites are to be

    performed; e. g. the kasinānuloma consists of the eight

    first kasinas in their regular order, the dhyānānuloma of

    the four successive dhyānas.]

    II. Avyayībh. (-mam) In natural order, regularly, suc-

    cessively. E. anu and loman, samāsānta aff. ac.
