Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
tathādarśana, adj. Bhvr.

Senart em. °nāyaiva
required is rather °nato, prob. followed by evaṃ va) samāno, etc. (he goes to Rājagṛha). (Otherwise Senart
ignoring the Bhvr. nature of the cpd. which seems guaranteed by evaṃdarśana, °dṛṣṭi.) Also Mv 〔ii.123.16〕 (prose) sa khalv ahaṃ tathādarśanasamāno, I being of this opinion (as just stated in prec.).
