Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid

English

 vartanā (-veṇī
 for Pali see below),  (string of) bead(s). Note that veṇī in Pali,  and at least veṇikā in Skt.,  are used in the fig. sense of line,  string
 Tib. on LV (both times) renders lan bu (or,  bur) blas pa,  rendered by Foucaux le tissu dʼune tresse
 I cannot find blas pa in Tib. Dictt.,  but lan bu does indeed seem to mean braid of hair,  the normal Skt. meaning of veṇī
 it may be that Tib. mistranslated. Occurs twice in LV,  in the same comparison: 〔254.13〕 (tad yathāpi nāma) vartanyā veṇy (read vartanāveṇy) unnatāvanatā bhavati samaviṣamā,  evaṃ me pṛṣṭhīkaṇṭako …
 and 〔256.1〕 (tad yathā karkaṭakapārśukā) vāhanaśālāyāṃ vā gopānāsī pārśve (cf. 〔254.9—11〕) dvipari-(see this!)vartanā veṇīvat (read as one cpd. word) pṛṣṭhīkaṇṭakaḥ. The Mv parallels clearly had vaṭṭanāvalī,  q.v.,  in accord with the Pali. The Pali MN 〔i.80.15〕 (cf. also 〔81.12〕
 〔245.30〕) has: (seyyathā) pi nāma vaṭṭanāvaḷī evam eva ssu me piṭṭhikaṇṭako unnatāvanato hoti
 comm. 〔ii.50.5〕,  yathā rajjuyā āvuṇitvā katā vaṭṭanāvaḷī vaṭṭanānaṃ antarantarā ninnā hoti,  vaṭṭanaṭṭhānesu unnatā … See also vartita (°tā … veṇī).
