Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryParopariya, (°ñāṇa) see under indriya°. The form is paro +pariya, paro heŕe taking the place of para. Yet it would be more reasonable to explain the word as para+ apara (upara?)+ya, i.e. that which belongs to this world & the beyond, or everything that comes within the range of the faculties. Cp. parovara. (Page 439)
Pali is the language of the Tipiṭaka, which is the sacred canon of Theravāda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.
