Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
Englishvyavacāra, m. (to vyavacārayati),
(1) wandering or searching through (localities): (Sudarśanaṃ bhikṣuṃ mārgayamāṇo) janapada-°reṣu nagara-°reṣu, etc. (long series of locs. like these) Gv 〔127.16 ff.〕
sarvasattvabhājana-(text °nā-)-loka-°reṣu (see s.v. bhājana) sarvasattvagati-°reṣu Gv 〔180.8〕
kiṃvyavacārā (asi) Gv 〔287.9〕, what have been your wanderings, searchings (or, considerations)?
(2) prob. (cf. [Page515-b] the usual mg. of vyavacārayati) consideration, pondering, intellectual mastery: samādhi-samudraṃ ca samādhivyutthānaṃ ca samādhi-°raṃ ca … adrākṣīt Gv 〔148.23〕. See also a-vyavacāra
if my assumption of the neg. in that word is right, it would mean lit. non-consideration
otherwise, if we must assume vyavacāra, not a-vy°, it is hard to see how the mg. contempt (which seems inevitable) could be explained.
