विभागीय (vibhAgIya)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
? vibhāgīya (app. to Pali vibhāga plus -īya), one who is an expert in scholastic classification (cf. Senart, Mv 〔ii note 536〕): dharmo gatir °yānāṃ Mv 〔ii.212.20〕 (vs)
but the pāda is hypermetric
in a repetition of the same vs 〔iii.156.17〕 Senart reads the metrically correct dvijātīnāṃ, of brahmans, but mss. vibhātīnām (read vibhāgīnāṃ, gen. pl. of vibhāgin = vibhāgīya?)
Pali has the same vs, Vin. 〔v.149.22—23〕, but with a quite different pāda for this: vibhavo gati dhammānaṃ.
