भवनेत्री (bhavanetrI)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
bhavanetrī, °trikā (= Pali bhavanetti, seems to be a virtual synonym of taṇhā
defined by Childers desire, lust), leading (that which leads) to (continued) existence
ep. of tṛṣṇā: tṛṣṇāṃ °trīṃ Mv 〔ii.307.12〕
alone, but clearly implying tṛṣṇā, in Mv 〔i.247.18〕 (vs) aśeṣā bhavanetrisaritā [Page407-b] ucchoṣitā, all streams of (thirst) which lead to further existence are dried up
dharmā (states of being) bhavanetrikā(ḥ) Mv 〔iii.337.13〕
〔339.12〕. (In Mv 〔ii.206.15〕 Senart puts this into text by em., but read with mss. purimabhava-janetriye bhavanighātī, which is sound in meter and sense.) See netrikā, and next.
