व्यास्कन्दक (vyAskandaka)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
vyāskandaka-, a kind of samāpatti, q.v.: Mvy 〔1497〕 (Mironov vya°). Tib. renders by snrel zhi, which usually = vyatyasta (q.v. 2), and Mvy ed. suggests reading so
cf. vyutkrāntaka. It would seem to be, like the latter, a manner of skipping from one trance-state to a non-adjoining one. But Chin. has the equivalent of nāsaṃjñāyatana, which as Ting says seems ‘an abbreviation’ (the last part) of naivasaṃjñānāsaṃjñāyatana.
