Utkāśa (उत्काश).—m., see next. Perhaps utkāśaḥ, alone, is to be read in this sense for text utkāsaḥ in Gaṇḍavyūha 307.23 (prose); after a Tathāgata's parinirvāṇa, by a follower of his, udvegasaṃjananārthaṃ dhārmika utkāsaḥ (i.e. °śaḥ?) kṛto 'bhūt: aho bateyaṃ…mahādharmolkāntardhā- syatīti saṃvegajananīyā kathā kṛtā. But compare utkāsa.

Utkāsa (उत्कास).—(1) (m.), clearing of the throat (= Sanskrit ut-kāsana): Lalitavistara 416.11 (verse) utkāsaśabdu napi śrūyati tan- muhūrtaṃ (mss. vary greatly, but Tibetan lud paḥi sgra confirms this form and meaning); (2) m. utkāsaḥ, see s.v. utkāśa; if the theory there stated be rejected, the word would have to be classed with (1) and would seem to mean something like hemming and hawing, or rather ominous sound (calling attention to the future disap- pearance of the dharma), in Gaṇḍavyūha 307.23.

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.
