Englishsatya-vacana and satya-vākya, nt., (see also abhiyācanā
[Page554-b] = Pali sacca-vacana, more often sacca-kiriyā), solemn statement of truth as a means of magic control of events (cf. Burlingame, JRAS 〔1917.429 ff.〕): °vākyena Mv 〔ii.97.9, 17, 20〕, °vacanena 19 (by this a kiṃnarī is bound)
°vākya 〔ii.218.4〕
〔229.15〕
°vacana 〔218.15 ff., 229.17 ff.〕 (by this an ascetic boy killed by a poisoned arrow is revived)
°vacana Divy 〔473.19 ff.〕 (by this a woman changes her sex)
〔571.5 ff.〕
SP 〔413.8〕, see satyādhiṣṭhāna. The ‘Skt.’ satyakriyā is cited in BR and pw only from a review of Hardyʼs Eastern Monachism in Ind. Stud. 〔3.119〕
if it actually occurs, even in BHS, I have failed to note it
is it perhaps a modern Sktization of the Pali saccakiriyā ? See Burlingame, l. c. 〔433 f.〕
