Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryAvadarpita (अवदर्पित).—(?) , in Lalitavistara 275.8 sv-avadarpita-vimala-buddhir; textually uncertain; mss. vary greatly on ava°; many omit vimala; Tibetan śin tu (= su) dkar baḥi (white, often = avadāta) blo (= buddhi) daṅ ldan pa (having), apparently omitting vimala, and suggesting that it is based on avadāta, white, i.e., bright, instead of avadarpita, which is nowhere recorded and seems senseless, as do the alternative readings of the other [Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit] mss.
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.
