Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryVirāguṇa, in meaning “fading away, waning” in verse at It. 69 (of viññāṇa) is doubtful reading. It corresponds to virāgadhamma of the prose part (virāgudh° vv. ll.). The v. l. is pabhaṅguṇa (which might be preferable, unless we regard it as an explanation of virāgin, if we should write it thus). (Page 634)
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.
