    anusmṛti , f. (= Pali anussati; virtually non-existent

    in Skt., cf. BR 5.993), mindfulness: there are six anu°:

    buddhānu°, dharmānu°, saṃghānu°, śīlānu°, tyāgānu°,

    devatānu° (Dharmas devānu°), all listed in Pali forms in

    Vism. (CPD), and in BHS, Mvy 1148-54; Dharmas 54;

    LV 31.18--22 (each is a dharmālokamukham); four others

    later named in Vism. (CPD), the first three usually com-

    pounded with sati instead of anussati: maraṇa(-sati, or

    °ṇānussati), kāyagatā sati, ānāpāna-sati, upasamānussati;

    these, with the other six, form a list of ten in ŚsP 1443.6 ff.,

    the last four being ānāpānānusmṛti (prob. read so with

    ŚsP 60.8 for text ānāpānusmṛtir, which could also be a

    corruption for ānāpāna, q.v., -smṛtir), udvegānu° (instead

    of Pali upasamānu°), maraṇānu°, and kāyagatānu°. Of

    all these the only one often found elsewhere, apart from

    the lists, is buddhānusmṛti Divy 352.21; Av i.82.3; Suv

    7.3; Gv 61.7; cf. anusmṛti buddha (loc.) abhedyā Śikṣ

    4.17, 18 (vss). Other occurrences Mvy 860; 1579 (see

    anuttarya); LV 182.21, read anusmṛtī bhāvanu; Gv 36.9.
