Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryMuta, (for mata, cp. Geiger. P. Gr. § 18) thought, supposed, imagined (i.e. received by other vaguer sense impressions than by sight & hearing) M. I, 3; Sn. 714 (=phusan’arahaṃ SnA 498), 812; J. V, 398 (=anumata C.); Vbh. 14, 429 sq.—Often in set diṭṭha suta muta what is seen, heard & thought (? more likely “felt, ” cp. Nd2 298: diṭṭha=cakkhunā d. , sutaṃ=sotena s. , mutaṃ=ghānena ghāyitaṃ, jivhāya sāyitaṃ, kāyena phuṭṭaṃ, and viññātaṃ=manasā v.; so that from the interpretation it follows that d. s. m. v. refer to the action (perception) of the 6 senses, where muta covers the 3 of taste, smell & touch, and viññāta the function of the manas) S. I, 186 (K. S. I. 237 note); IV, 73; Th. I, 1216. Similarly the psychol. analysis of the senses at Dhs. 961: rūp’āyatanaṃ diṭṭhaṃ; sadd-āyat. sutaṃ; gandh°, ras°, phoṭṭhabb° mutaṃ; sabbaṃ rūpaṃ manasā viññātaṃ. See on this passage Dhs. trsl. § 961 note. In the same sense DhsA. 388 (see Expositor, II. 439).—D. III, 232; Sn. 790 (cp. Nd1 87 sq. in extenso) 793, 798, 812, 887, 901, 914, 1086, 1122. Thus quite a main tenet of the old (popular) psychology.

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.
