Viyūha (वियूह).—m., = vyūha, q.v.

--- OR ---

Viyūhā (वियूहा) or Vyūhā.—q.v.

--- OR ---

Viyūhā (वियूहा) or Vyūhā.—(2): mahatyā rājavyūhayā Suvarṇabhāsottamasūtra 79.13 (prose); about half the mss. mahatā °vyūhena; (mahatā rājānubhāvena mahatā rāja-ṛddhīye) mahatā (so 1 ms., v.l. °tāye, Senart em. °tīye) viyūhāye (no v.l.) mahatīye vibhūṣāye Mahāvastu ii.113.13 (prose); in similar list, mahatā viyūhāye (no v.l.) ii.156.17. I have elected to take as pl. m. the forms in Lalitavistara 36.16 (verse), see under vyūha (1); the citation there is completed by manasā vicintitā śrīmān, without significant v.l.; Calcutta (see LV.) śrīman, as if voc. sg., but if voc. it should be pl. (the Bodhisattva, still in heaven, addresses the Tuṣita gods); if acc. pl., it would imply that the preceding forms ending in -ā are also acc. pl., coordinate with phalam idaṃ (śṛṇu-r-asya…) of next line; all of which would be quite possible in [Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit].

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.
