utkarṣayati (cf. prec.
not in this sense Skt.
= Pali ukkaṃsati, °seti), exalts, i.e. praises: gdve., Śikṣ 〔197.10〕 sacec cañcalendriyo (rājā) bhavati, utkarṣayitavyaṃ (sc. bhikṣuṇā), if (the king) is flighty (unstable), praise must be bestowed (saying: It is very meritorious on your part that your kingdom contains so many worthy monks and brahmans who live undisturbed by thieves etc.). Acc. to Bendall, Tib. has bstan par bya ḥo, and accordingly Transl. renders ‘the Brother should admonish him’ (more exactly, the Tib. means elucidate, make intelligible). But I do not see how the BHS word can mean this. The mg. of the Pali word is appropriate here
by encouraging flattery the king is to be strengthened in a good course.
