cari, or carī (ī chiefly or wholly m.c.), f. (not recorded in MIndic
= Skt. caryā, Pali cariyā, both also in BHS, see s.vv.
cf. 〔§ 3.115〕), course of conduct, regular system of action (esp. religious)
particularly with reference to the programmatic course of a Bodhisattva, leading to enlightenment
(on its four aspects or stages see s.v. caryā
) these forms chiefly, but not exclusively, in verse
see also cāri, cārikā
in prose the usual expression is (Bodhisattva-)caryā, e.g. SP 〔7.1〕
〔65.5〕
LV 〔90.10〕
Gv 〔58.9〕
but even in prose note (bo)dhisattva-cari-niṣpanda- LV 〔5.1〕 (all mss., only Calc. °carita°), and cf. Bhadracari-vidhipūrvakaṃ Śikṣ 〔139.13〕 (prose
the bhadra-cari is the bodhisattva-cari
the work of this name is elsewhere called Bhadra-caryā in the prose of Śikṣ, 〔290.8〕
〔291.9〕
〔297.1〕)
in Bhad itself the form is Bhadracari wherever meter does not require ī, as in the cpd. °cari-praṇidhāna 2, 49, 54, 61, where in the seam of the cpd. the consonant cluster makes the preceding syllable long
cf. also the acc. sg. °cariṃ (not °carīṃ) 17, 22, 26, 51, 62
Watanabe wrongly regards the title as primarily °carī. (All remaining citations in this article are from verses.) caryā may be used even in vss, where meter is indifferent (so SP 〔67.13〕) or requires long first syllable (SP 〔68.6〕), tho in the latter case cāri (°ī) and cārikā, qq.v., are also found
nearly all the cases here cited refer to the religious course leading to enlightenment, to Buddhahood or Bodhisattvahood, but occasionally the term is applied to any or all human courses of action, including such as are disapproved
iya bāla-carī, this foolish (or childish) course LV 〔174.9, 11〕 (vs)
jāniya te cariṃ ca SP 〔45.3〕, knowing them (all the creatures of the world) and their (various) course(s) of action
cariṃcariṃ jāniya nityakālaṃ vadāmi sattvāna tathā-tathāhaṃ SP 〔326.11〕, knowing the various modes of conduct (of beings) always, I speak to creatures in this or that way (Kashgar rec., Thomas ap. Hoernle MR 〔133.1〕, cari acari, metrically impossible, and uninterpretable
Thomas the moving and not-moving [of living beings], which seems unacceptable)
jagataḥ prajānase yā carir yatha ca karmasaṃbhavaḥ RP 〔6.1〕
otherwise, referring to the course of Bodhisattvas, also called the true (bhūta), subtle (sūkṣma), pure (viśuddha), supreme (uttama) course, the course of (leading to) enlightenment (bodhi-), of morality (śīla-), or other similar epithets
also duṣkara-, referring to Śākyamuniʼs temporary experiment with severe austerities
often former, ancient (pūrva, purima) with allusion to the length of it thru many past births
frequently a form of the cognate verb car (also ā-car) is used with it: sūkṣmāṃ cariṃ SP 〔12.7〕
te (sc. of the Buddha) ātmana yādṛśī carī 〔63.13〕
bhūtāṃ cariṃ 〔64.2〕 (but in adjoining prose, 〔64.13, 65.5〕, caryā)
〔127.10〕
〔193.6〕
yathā carī mahya sutena cīrṇa 〔203.4〕
smara cari purimāṃ LV 〔161.21〕
yām evā varacari (acc.) caritas tvaṃ tām evā cari vibhaja jagasya 〔164.16〕
purimāṃ praṇidhāna-carīṃ 〔175.14〕
tāṃ pūrvacarīm [Page226-a] anusmarā 〔178.5〕
pūrvacariṃ carantaḥ 〔219.13〕
ṣaḍvarṣāṇi caritva duṣkaracariṃ 〔276.1〕
bodhicari sarva (n. sg.) 〔341.2〕
svacarī viśuddhacari pāragatā 〔360.3〕
nigadottamāṃ cariṃ RP 〔9.6〕
uttamacariṃ prakāśaya 〔9.14〕
cari buddhasutānāṃ Śikṣ 〔2.16〕
cariṣyāmy amitāṃ cariṃ 〔13.19〕
cari (acc.) samanta-bhadrāṃ Gv 〔57.17—18〕
purimacariṃ pariśuddha ācaritvā Sukh 〔23.14〕
śīlacariṃ Bhad 〔17〕
bodhicariṃ 〔22, 26, 28〕.
