Abhikrānta (अभिक्रान्त).—(= Pali abhikkanta; on confusion with ati°, partly no doubt graphic, see atikrānta), (1) adj., advanced, eminent, successful: Divyāvadāna 311.5 f. abhikrānto 'haṃ bhadanta (note p. 707 would read ati°, but Pali abhikkanta is used in mgs. very close to this; instead, read abhikr° for atikr° Divyāvadāna 462.13); Mūla-Sarvāstivāda-Vinaya i.54.5; 58.16, etc.; (2) adj., fine, beautiful, of color (Pali abhikkanta, also with vaṇṇa): probably read in Lalitavistara 398.11 abhikrāntena varṇena; Lefm. em. abhisaṃkrāntena v°; most mss. abhisaṃskāreṇa (seems senseless); v.l. atisaṃkrāntena; Calcutta (see LV.) atikrāntena, which is the usual [Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit] form in this meaning and may be right; (3) n., approach: °ta-pratikrānta, approach and recession, Mahāvastu i.301.5 (mss. ati°); iii.60.5; 182.12 (mss. ati°); °tena pratikrāntena Mahāvastu iii.171.2; atikrāntābhikrāntaḥ Divyāvadāna 47.16 (? so mss., ed. em. atikrāntātikrāntaḥ), perhaps having passed over the ap- proach (to the religious goal)?

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
