English
अभ्यस्तमित Tatpur. m. f. n. (-तः-ता-तम्) One towards whom
the sun has set (scil. while he is asleep), asleep at sunset
e. g. Gotama: सूर्याभ्युदितो ब्रह्मचारी तिष्ठेदहरभुञ्जनोऽभ्य-
स्तमितश्च रात्रिं जपन्सावित्रीम् (where the ellipsis ‘when
asleep’ follows from the word स्वप्न in the preceeding pas-
sage: रेतस्कन्दने भये रोगे स्वप्नेऽग्नीन्धनभैक्षचरणानि सप्त-
रात्रं कृत्वाज्यहोमः साभिसन्धेर्वा रेतस्याभ्याम्).--This is the
reading acc. to both Calc. edd. of Kullūka to Manu 2. 220
the Calc. ed. of Gotama's Sanh. (made by Bhavanīcharana-
vandya, as he says, बहुप्रयत्नतः) has, however, सूर्याभ्युदिते
…(अ)भ्यस्तमिते च…, when it would be necessary to
take सू° as equivalent to सूर्याभ्युदय and अभ्य° as expressing
the sense of अभ्यस्तमय, both words being then locatives
of a neuter °तम्. But Kullūka's reading seems better as
being countenanced by analogous expressions in Manu 2. 221.
Comp. अभिनिर्मुक्त and अभ्युदित. E. अभि and अस्तमित (not
अभ्यस्तम् and इत, for अभि refers to the person or act con-
cerned by the sunset
similarly in ved. passages which
contain the combination अभ्यस्तमगात् or अभ्यस्तमियात्, the
rad. गा or are combined first with अस्तम् and then with
अभि, not with अभ्यस्तम्)
see also the preceding.
