Englishasaṃkhyeya,
(1) adj. (= Skt. id., Pali asaṃkheyya), innumerable. In Pali (see Childers s.v. kappo) as an adj. applied to kappa (see BHS kalpa), denotes a world-age of a certain extent
in some definitions at least, of a length intermediate between a mahā- and an antara-k°. Acc. to LaVallée Poussin, AbhidhK 〔iii.188〕, asaṃkhyeya kalpa means here le temps que durent un nombre asaṃkhyeya (10 à la 59me puissance) de mahākalpas. I have not noted the Pali usage in the texts excerpted by me (but see Przyluski, Açoka, 〔408〕). Typical of their use of this adjective with kalpa is SP 〔17.8〕 asaṃkhyeyaiḥ kalpair asaṃkhyeyatarair vipulair aprameyair acintyair etc., in which asaṃkhyeya has its normal Skt. mg. of innumerable
(2) nt., a very high number: Mvy 〔7802〕
