English? rajojala, nt., Mv 〔iii.412.17〕 (vs), perhaps intended as dvandva cpd., dirt and water
but perhaps same mg. as rajomalaṃ in same vs (this word occurs in Pali, e.g. Jāt. 〔i.24.23〕, in different vs) Divy 〔339.24〕, dirt and impurity
in a list of characteristic practices of ascetics, which are said to be ineffective for purifying a man still subject to desire
the vs occurs in Pali Dhp. 〔141〕, where edd. and mss. vary, but Fausböll, 2d ed., rajovajall'
better with Mrs. Rhys Davids (Minor Anthologies, 1931) rajo va jall' (cf. jallaṃ Sn 〔249〕), two separate words (va prob. m.c. for vā)
note that Pali repeatedly has rajo-jalla (PTSD)
it is possible that Mv rajojalaṃ stands for (Pali) rajo-jallaṃ, m.c.
jalla is derived in PTSD from Skt. *jalya, deriv. of jala (questionable!). The line (in which Divy prefixes na, unmetrically, before rajomalaṃ) is completed by votkuṭukaprahāṇaṃ (Mv mss. vo utk°
Divy notk°
Dhp. ukkuṭikappadhānaṃ).
