? vyāseka, m. (cf. Pali vyāsiñcati, avyāseka), should mean pollution, defilement, which seems reasonably appropriate [Page519-a] in the context: Mvy 〔7540〕. But Tib. ḥphyar ba, hang up, elevate (also sift, winnow, and show, represent)
Chin. hang
Jap. merely translates Tib. and speculates etymologically, and futilely, ignoring the Pali. Cf. AbhidhK. LaV-P. 〔vi.289〕 bahuvidhaviṣaya-vyāseka-visārin (of buddhi), qui se dispersent naturellement, distraites par la variété des objets (it is not clear to me how LaV-P. took vyāseka).
