pratihanyate, °ti (pass. of Skt. prati-han-),
(1) is struck against (to Skt. prati-han-, rarely, BR s.v. 1): yatra indriyāṇi °yante te viṣayā ity ucyante Śikṣ 〔251.12〕, the things against which the senses are struck (wrongly Bendall and Rouse) are called the sense-objects (cf. pratihanyanā)
(2) is echoed, of sound: (mahārāvaṃ ravantānāṃ ca śabdo …) parvatehi °yante (so mss.) Mv 〔i.6.2〕
(3) is reflected, of light: in Senartʼs text pratyahanyanti Mv 〔i.6.9 ff.〕, repeatedly, with most or all mss.
in 〔i.7.9〕 pratyāhanyanti, with some mss., others pratya°
but in 〔i.25.14 ff.〕, in similar passage, all mss. repeatedly pratihanyanti, which is probably what the passages all mean
cf. 〔§ 32.8〕.
