sārāyaṇīya (on etym. see below),
(1) nt., hospitable entertainment, esp. with food: °yaṃ karetsu (so mss., prec. by na) saṃbuddhasya punaḥ-punaḥ Mv 〔i.304.5〕 (vs), (the villagers) gave entertainment to the Perfectly Enlightened One again and again (sc. with food, which they had previously refused him)
ṛṣiṇā tasya lubdhakasya °ṇīyaṃ kṛtaṃ, yathā ṛṣidharmo phalodakam upanāmitaṃ Mv 〔ii.96.17〕
(2) adj., f. °yā (= saṃrañjana, °nīya, saṃrajanīya
= Pali sārāṇīya, which Childers derives from the Skt. root smṛ, following standard Pali comms., e.g. MN comm. 〔i.110.16 ff., ii.394.31 f.〕, but this is certainly wrong
Kern, cited PTSD, rightly regards BHS saṃrañjana, °nīya, as the true original
all forms can be derived from this
saṃ- gave sā-, and for -rañja- was substituted first *-rāja-, both by 〔§ 3.3〕, then -rāya-, as in BHS, 〔§ 2.34〕
finally in Pali this -rāya- was contracted to the single syllable -rā-, Pischel 〔149, 150〕, cf. 〔§ 3.118〕, Geiger 〔20〕
the rare BHS saṃrajanīya, if not an error for saṃrañj°, may be derived from the unnasalized form of the same root raj), courteous, pleasing, polite, friendly: this form noted only in Mv 〔iii.47.18〕 etc. (cited, with list of passages, s.v. saṃmodate
always °yāṃ kathām)
in 〔iii.394.14〕, however, mss. sāropaṇīyāṃ instead (Senart em.), and one of them also reads sāropayitvā for the following vyatisārayitvā. For other parallels see the equivalent words cited above.
