लूख (lUkha)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
lūkha, adj. (= Pali id., Skt. rūkṣa
see also lūha, rukṣa, ruccha, a-lūkha, a-lūha, and next), coarse, poor (of food)
inferior, bad (of inclinations)
once perhaps subst., evil: of food, Mv 〔ii.233.7, 8〕 (note lūha in 5)
〔234.9〕
〔460.15〕
〔iii.120.22〕
〔178.7〕
lūkhādhimuktikā Mv 〔ii.313.9〕
seemingly subst., evil, Mv 〔iii.364.14〕 śuddhalūkhā (ṛṣayo) purified of evil (does it really refer to their diet? improbable
but they are mūlaphalāhārā in preceding line
possibly, then, of pure and coarse [simple] food?).
