English

 vijñānāhāra,  m. (= Pali viññā°),  the fourth kind of ‘food’ (see s.v. kavalīkārāhāra),  acc. to PTSD consisting of vijñāna as the food or material cause from which rebirth arises: Mvy 〔2287〕. Dharmas 〔70〕 seems (corruptly) to have dhyānāhāra instead. Cf. LaVallée-Poussin,  AbhidhK. 〔iii.121〕,  which however does not furnish a clear definition.
