Upadeśeti (उपदेशेति).—(°śayati) , exhibits, displays: Mahāvastu i.169.16 jarāṃ ca upadeśenti, na caiṣāṃ vidyate jarā; and 19, ārabdham (? mss. alabdhi) upadeśenti eṣā lokānu- vartanā (see anuvartanā). Similarly 170.2 (they are not born or begotten, yet) mātāpitṛñ ca deśenti eṣā lokānu- vartanā; 170.10 alpotsukatvaṃ pradeśenti eṣā°. The meaning is regular for Sanskrit deśayati and for upadiśati, pradiśati, but not recorded for the causatives of the two latter. Nevertheless it seems necessary to keep the mss. readings, rather than read (upa-, pra-)darśenti, as Senart in his note was tempted to do (and that altho forms of darśayati are similarly used in the context, e.g. 170.4, 6).

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.
