    ☞ p. 78, col. 2.
    avivarta-caryā (= avaivarta-, anivartana-caryā) ,

    course that is not liable to turning back (backsliding): Mv

    i.63.13. The text explains by vivartanti saṃsaranti vivar-

    tacaryā (cf. vivarta, world-evolution); but I agree with

    Senart, note on i.1.3, that this is mere fantasy and wholly

    misleading.
