Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryVṛndi (वृन्दि).—or vṛndī (related to Sanskrit vṛnda, orig. swelling, mass, as m. in Suśr. tumor; = Pali, AMg. bondi; see Edgerton, JAOS 69.229, anticipated, as I learned too late, by Lüders, KZ 52.106—9, with relevant materials not included by me; compare voṇṭa), body (orig. solid mass or the like): vaḍḍā (see vaḍḍa) ca vṛndi (in this pāda mss. lack 3 syllables; perhaps read ca vidyate vṛndi, or, ca vṛndī, which in this position makes better meter than vṛndi, bhavati) prajñā ca te na vidyate Mahāvastu ii.249.19 (verse), so mss., you have a big body, but you have no wit; = Pali Jātaka (Pali) ii.160.11 mahatī vata te bondi na ca paññā tadūpikā. Senart failed to note the parallel and emended the text badly.
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.
