Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryDharmacinti (धर्मचिन्ति).—(n) , ‘thinking on the Doctrine’, perhaps name of a previous incarnation of Śākyamuni (otherwise unrecorded): Lalitavistara 170.17 (verse). Tibetan chos sems confirms the meaning; but it lacks the connective daṅ, which occurs after each of the other three names in the line; accordingly it seems to have understood this word as an epithet of the following Arcimān.
[Sanskrit to German]
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.
