Tatsvabhāvaiṣīya (तत्स्वभावैषीय).—m., sc. vinaya, or nt., with karma, (procedure of discipline) which investigates the special nature of that (accused monk), a particular type of procedure for settling disputes, one of the 7 adhikaraṇa-śamatha, q.v.: Mūla-Sarvāstivāda-Vinaya ii.207.12 (nt.); m., Mahāvyutpatti 8635 = Tibetan deḥi (of that) ṅo bo ñid (= svabhāva, reality, entity) tshol du (seeking, -eṣa) gzhug par (for entering?) ḥos pa (suitable). The Pali equivalent is tassa-pāpiyyasikā, with which kiriyā is assumed to be supplied; [Pali Text Society’s Pali-English Dictionary] offers no [etymology]; Childers, tasya-pāpīyas-ikā; Majjhimanikāya (Pali) ii.249.1 ff. has a descrip- tion, its commentary iv.49.22 f. glosses tassa puggalassa pāpus- sannatā, that individual's abundance of sin; can the Pali be an unhistorical distortion of the orig. of the [Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit] form ? Or is the latter a secondary rationalization? Childers s.v. gives a description of the performance according to Pali tradition (the case is decided on the accused person's general bad behavior).

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.
