संज्ञाय (saMjJAya)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
Saṃjñāya (mss. mostly Saṃjaya, but Tib. yaṅ dag śes, supporting Nobelʼs reading), n. of a yakṣa prince or commander (senāpati): Suv 〔85.1〕
〔91.16〕
〔128.3 ff.〕 (chap. XI, °ya-parivarta)
〔158.13〕 (here called janarṣabhaḥ, so read with best mss., others nararṣabhaḥ
Nobelʼs jinarṣabhaḥ, based on Tib., seems to me clearly wrong, cf. Nobelʼs note 〔14〕 above where N. corrects the same Tib. reading
context proves that a yakṣa, not a Buddha, is meant)
〔161.7〕.
