तलशक्तिका (talazaktikA)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
tala-śaktikā (= Pali talasattikā, also a raising of the hand, but there seems to denote a threatening gesture), lit. palm-spear, a raising of the hand in a gesture of salutation: añjalis (so with WT) paripūrṇa ekā talaśaktikā SP 〔52.7〕 (vs), (by whom is made) either a complete añjali or a mere raising of one hand (in salutation). On Mv 〔iii.55.4〕, where this word might be conjectured, see s.v. chādayati (1).
