Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid

English

 saṃdhā (cf. the Skt. mg. Absicht,  pw s.v. 3,  and saṃdhāya),  (special,  cryptic, ) esoteric meaning,  the ‘real’ meaning of a Buddhist text or doctrine,  opp. to its prima facie or superficial meaning
 perh. always in comp. with a word for speech,  words,  or the like
 but see also saṃdhi (5)
 see ābhiprāyika,  which S.K. De,  NIA 〔1.5〕,  is right in relating to this
 my note in JAOS 〔57.185 ff.〕 is prob. misleading in regarding complete meaning as basic
 Tib. regularly dgoṅs (te),  meaning,  intention,  often preceded,  sometimes replaced,  by ldem po(r),  in a riddlesome way
 nevertheless the implication of the word is always fundamental,  ‘real’ meaning,  as is esp. shown by SP 〔60.12—13〕 (prose) yat punar bhagavann asmābhir anupasthiteṣu bodhisattveṣu saṃdhābhāṣyaṃ bhagavato 'jānamānais tvaramāṇaiḥ prathamabhāṣitaiva tathāgatasya dharmadeśanā śrutvodgṛhītā,  but in as much,  Lord,  as we,  not knowing the Lordʼs words as He really intended them (esoterically,  cryptically,  Tib. ldem por dgoṅs te bśad pa),  there being no bodhisattvas on hand,  in our haste heard and accepted merely His prima-facie words
 so,  saṃdhā-bhāṣya (Tib. usually as above) SP 〔29.7〕
 〔34.2,  10〕
 〔39.11〕
 〔70.5〕 (vs,  Tib. ldem ṅag,  omitting dgoṅs) and 8 (vs,  Tib. as in 〔60.12—13〕 but om. ldem por)
 〔273.14〕 and 〔337.2〕 (vss)
 saṃdhā-bhāṣita (Tib. generally as in 〔60.12—13〕) 〔125.2,  3〕 (see below
 ldem por om. in 3)
 〔199.2〕 (gsuṅs for bśad)
 〔233.11〕 (paramasaṃdhā-bhāṣita-vivaraṇo hy ayaṃ dharmaparyāyas)
 〔288.2〕
 saṃdhā-vacanehi,  °naṃ,  SP 〔59.4〕 and 5 (here Tib. om. dgoṅs
 in 4 ldem poḥi ṅag [= bśad or gsuṅs] rnams,  riddle-words
 in 5 ldem po ṅag)
 note Buddhaʼs words in [Page557-a] SP 〔125.1〕 na sahasaiva sarvajñajñānaṃ saṃprakāśayāmi,  I do not reveal the Omniscientʼs knowledge all at once,  given as reason for his hearersʼ failure to understand saṃdhābhāṣitaṃ,  since (3) … durvijñeyaṃ … tathāgatānāṃ … saṃdhābhāṣitam. Note that this form seems to occur only in SP,  while the ger. saṃdhāya is more widespread
 saṃdhi,  however,  seems to be used,  tho rarely,  in the same sense,  and once in Laṅk text has saṃdhyā-bhāṣya,  q.v.,  clearly in this same mg.,  and prob. error for saṃdhā°.

 saṃdhā́,  f.

τίθημι,  the counterpart of saṃdadhāmi.]
