प्रदधाति (pradadhAti)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
pradadhāti (= Pali padahati, with cittaṃ, DN 〔iii.221.14〕), exerts (the mind, cittaṃ): evaṃ cittaṃ pradadhyās tvaṃ Śikṣ 〔101.10〕 (vs, from Samādh). From this verb, as used in Pali, are derived pradhāna and prahāṇa (1), also prahita, qq.v.
and in Mv 〔ii.208.1〕 (prahāṇaṃ) pradadhāti, exerts himself in exertion, should prob. be read (for corrupt mss.) instead of Senartʼs em. pratidadhāti
cf. both pradhāna and prahāṇa dependent on prahita, q.v. [In pw s.v. dhā with pra cited from LV Calc. as mg. sich einer Sache (acc.) hingeben, but Lefm. 〔385.12〕 (vs) reads with some mss. pradadhyau (to dhyā), which is proved right by meter and Tib. dgoṅs.]
