Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid

English

 ādi,  beginning (= Skt.): ādiṃ,  acc. (= Pali ādiṃ katvā,  with acc. object) and ādau,  loc.,  with following kṛtvā,  and preceding acc. (once gen.),  lit. putting … first
 so beginning with,  starting with,  from … on (the loc. ādau used precisely like the acc. ādiṃ
 putting at the beginning = making the beginning
 loc. only in Mv): tuṣitabhavanavāsam ādiṃ kṛtvā,  beginning with (the Bodhisattvaʼs) dwelling in the Tuṣita-heaven (= from then on) Śikṣ 〔292.5〕 = Dbh 〔14.21〕,  cf. tuṣitabhavanam ādau kṛtvā sarveṣāṃ bodhisattvānāṃ … Mv 〔i.147.15〕
 āvīcim ādiṃ kṛtvā sarvanairayikāṇāṃ sattvānāṃ … LV 〔86.11〕,  of all hell-inhabitants [Page093-b] from Āvīci on
 mātuḥ kukṣim ādau kṛtvā bodhisattvānāṃ yāvat parinirvṛtā Mv 〔i.145.2〕,  beginning with the motherʼs womb,  of Bodhisattvas,  until they have entered complete nirvāṇa
 bhartāraṃ ādau kṛtvā Mv 〔i.147.8〕 (no man has any carnal desire for the destined mothers of Buddhas) from their husbands on
 bodhisattvasya garbhāvakrāntim ādau kṛtvā Mv 〔i.157.15〕
 śākyamuniṃ samyaksaṃbuddhaṃ ādau kṛtvā ḍaśa bhūmayo deśitā Mv 〔i.161.7〕,  beginning from (the time of) Śākyamuni the Buddha,  the Ten Stages have been taught (not before! so,  I think,  the parallels require us to interpret,  contrary to Senart 〔n. 506〕)
 with gen. of the dependent noun (rather than acc.),  evidently construed as modifier of ādiṃ: tṛṣṇāyāḥ paunarbhavikyā ādiṃ kṛtvā Laṅk 〔180.10〕,  beginning with (starting from
 lit. making a beginning of) desire for rebirth. Cf. Mbh. Crit. ed. 〔2.52.17d〕 saha strībhir draupadīm ādi-kṛtvā,  along with the women,  beginning with Draupadī (i.e. D. and the others). This seems to be unparalleled in Skt. See also s.v. ādīkaroti.
