उद्यूथिका (udyUthikA)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
udyūthikā, f. subst. (adj.?), (cf. Pali uyyodhika, Vin. 〔iv.107.26〕, old comm. = yattha saṃpahāro dissati, the correspondent of our word, which seems to have been Sktized by association with yūtha, prob. unhistorically
root yudh is doubtless the true source
but mg. is rather obscure, see Childers, who guesses sham fight), perhaps some sort of military exercise, such as sham battle
in Mvy 〔8470〕 °kā-gamanam = Tib. gyul bśams pa ḥkhrug tu (ḥgro ba), (going to) an army prepared for battle? or a battle-prepared combat (i.e. a military maneuver)?
in Prāt 〔512.6〕 seemingly adj. with senā, udyūthikāṃ senāṃ darśanāya (Chin. regarder les manœuvres, Finot)
in accord with this possibly udyūthikā in Mvy may imply senā, meaning (an army) ready for military operations (?).
