जतुयन्त्र (jatuyantra)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
jatu-yantra, loc. °tre, lit. lac-machine, n. of some art, in a list of those in which the Bodhisattva excelled
so read in LV 〔156.22〕, for Lefm. jala-yantre
mss. vary, A (the best) cited as janu- (read jatu-)y°
Calc. jatu°, confirmed by Tib. rgya skyegs kyi ḥkhrul ḥkhor, machine of lac. The precise mg. is obscure to me
in corresponding lists of arts I have found nothing similar, unless jantunā Mv 〔i.129.9〕 (in a corrupt and obscure line, included in a passage of similar tenor) conceals jatunā, instr. of jatu.
