(if correct, [compound] of Sanskrit dhyāyati), meditates on: °dhyenti te prathamajanmasthitāḥ Gaṇḍavyūha 371.24 (verse); object may be in prec. line 23, sarvaṃ jināna aparān- taviyūhameghān, but this could be object of paśyanti in line 22, in which case °dhyenti could be an error for °dhenti, make a solemn vow, to praṇidheti, °dadhāti, q.v. for similar corruptions recorded in mss. of Mahāvastu.

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.
