Yathāvāditathākāri (यथावादितथाकारि).—(n) , adj. and °ri-tā, °tva, subst. (also as two separate adj., yathāvādī tathākārī Mahāvyutpatti 2408; so clearly in Pali, the two separated by other words, Dīghanikāya (Pali) ii.224.3; Itiv. 122.2 ff.; in Sn 357 yathāvādī (v.l. °di-) tathākārī, possibly as single [compound]), acting as one speaks, according to one's word: °kāry-avitatha-vāk-karma-samudā- hārakasya Lalitavistara 8.7; yathāvādī-(! probably read °di-)-tathākāri- cittaṃ Gaṇḍavyūha 367.13 (prose); abstract nouns in -tā, -tva, yathāvādi-tathākāri-tāṃ (acc.) Lalitavistara 440.3; Rāṣṭrapālaparipṛcchā 8.11; °ri-tayā (instr.) Rāṣṭrapālaparipṛcchā 10.7; Daśabhūmikasūtra 14.1; °ri-tvena Śikṣāsamuccaya 22.16; yathā- vāditā-tathākāritā (read as one word) Śatasāhasrikā-prajñāpāramitā 1460.11; in Mahāvastu occur, in the mss., forms ending in °taṃ for both members (kept by Senart for the second member, while he em. the first to °ta-), also with reversed order of the two parts (as in Pali ll.cc. above): yathākāritaṃ tathāvāditam anuprāpnuvanti (one ms. adds, yathāvāditaṃ tathākāri- taṃ anuprāp°, so surely read) Mahāvastu ii.260.13—14; in 261.15 both mss. invert the order, yathāvāditaṃ tathāk° anu°, yathāk° tathāv° anu°. If the ending °taṃ is textually sound, it can only represent °tām with MIndic shortening of the vowel; perhaps it should be em. to °tāṃ or °tvaṃ.

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.
