प्रघरति (pragharati)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
pragharati (praggh°? below
see gharati
Pali paggharati, which because of the double ggh is customarily associated with Skt. kṣar-, Geiger 〔56.2〕
even Skt., and still more BHS, has forms which at least look as if they came from a root ghṛ-, ghar-, see Wh. Roots and BR
cf. also parighareti), flows forth: °ti Mvy 〔6967〕 (here v.l. praggharati, and so Mironov
the only trace in BHS tradition of the double ggh)
Divy 〔57.21〕
〔409.1〕
Śikṣ 〔249.7〕
Av 〔i.202.13〕
Karmav 〔66.4〕. See also prākharati (pra°?). It may be, perhaps, that the BHS forms of ghar- (not in Pali) originated as simplex back-formations from MIndic paggharati, and that pragharati (instead of praggh°) was influenced by gharati. How are the Skt. forms to be interpreted? Uhlenbeck connects them with ghṛta, ghee.
