EnglishSunirmita,
(1) m. (= Pali Sunimmita, cf. DN 〔i.219.4〕), n. of the chief of the nirmāṇarati (also called nirmita) gods: LV 〔44.10〕
〔59.6〕
〔302.6〕
〔362.18〕
〔363.19〕
〔441.18〕
Mv 〔i.208.13〕
〔263.16〕
〔ii.11.1〕
〔iii.315.7〕
Divy 〔140.15〕
Mmk 〔45.8〕

Bbh 〔345.22〕 (in Mvy Sunirmāṇarati, q.v.)
most occurrences which seem to suggest use in pl., as of the class of nirmita (= nirmāṇarati) gods, are only apparent, see s.v. Suyāma for a number of cases in Gv, Dbh.g., and RP. However, I have noted two cases where the pl. seems unquestionable (unless we resort to emendation), and can only mean the class of which (the sg.) Sunirmita is chief: sunirmitāṃ devaputrāṃ paśyati ca svalaṃkṛtāṃ Mv 〔ii.360.4〕 (vs)
and, in a list of classes of gods, … sunirmitā paranirmitā śuddhāvāsā tuṣitā yāmā … Mmk 〔19.12〕 (prose). (But in LV 〔241.2〕, for Sunirmiteṣu, read with best ms. Sunirmito sa, supported by Tib.) Perhaps the fact that nirmita is used of the class, but less regularly than nirmāṇarati, led to occasional confusion with the name of its chieftain:
(2) nt., n. of a buddhakṣetra: Mv 〔i.123.6〕 (vs)
located in the east.
