    Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit Dictionary

    p. 45, col. 1.
    a-paritarṣaṇā (if neg. to BHS paritarṣaṇā, q.v.),

    not craving (so Bendall and Rouse): Śikṣ 183.5 cittasyāna-

    valīnatā 'navamṛdyatā 'paritarṣaṇā. There is no doubt

    that BHS paritarṣaṇā means desire. But CPD derives

    Pali (a)paritassanā from root tras (while noting that

    comms. derive from tṛṣ), and this seems to get some

    support from the two preceding and parallel nouns in

    Śikṣ; perhaps, then, after all, the not being wearied, depres-

    sed, or anxious. Cf. paritasyati.
