सामायि (sAmAyi)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
? sāmāyi (-kāmaṃ?), obscure: LV 〔37.5〕 (vs) anyo- 'nya-gama-(v.l. °gamana, which meter seems to require)yuktā yathaiva sāmāyi kāmaṃ (Calc. °yi-kāmaṃ as one word) ca
Tib. seems to render the whole line: dper na ḥdus pa dag ni khri las su (Foucaux, et, par exemple, les réunions sur des tapis), phan tshun ḥgro bar sbyor bar byed daṅ mtshuṅs, app. like one performing coition in moving back and forth (in moving towards one another)
so essentially Foucaux. Pali has adj. sāmāyika, seemingly based on samaya
is sāmāyi related to this? for samāyi, n. sg. of °yin, perh. with ā of first syllable m.c.? But the resulting sense is hardly satisfactory.
