Vy!va&a
Vy!va&a (adj.) [=Sk. vy!p%ta, cp. vy!p!ra, byappatha. & veyy!vacca] doing service, active, busy; eager,
keen, intent on (loc.), busy with A iv.195 (mayi= worrying about me); J iii.315 (su˚); iv.371 (kiccâkiccesu
v.= uyyatta C.); v.395 (=ussukka); vi.229 (=k!ya -- veyy!vacca -- d!n' !di -- kamma -- kara*ena vy!va&a
C.). -- dassana˚ keen on a sight, eager to see J i.89; VvA 213 (preferred to T. reading!). -- d!na˚ serving in
connection with a gift, busy with giving, a "commissioner of gifts," i. e. a superintendent installed by a
higher (rich) person (as a king or se&&hi) to look after the distribution of all kinds of gifts in connection with
a mah!d!na. Rh. Davids at Dial. ii.372 (following Childers) has quite misunderstood the term in referring it
to a vy!va&a in meaning of "hindered," and by translating it as "hindered at the largesse" or "objecting to the
largesse." At none of the passages quoted by him has it that meaning. See e. g. D ii.354; J iii.129; Pv ii.950
(d!ne v.=ussukka' !panna PvA 135); PvA 112 (d!ne), 124 (id.); DA i.296 (? not found). avy!va&a not busy,
not bothering about (loc.), unconcerned with, not worrying D ii.141 (Tath!gatassa sar"re; trsln not to the
point "hinder not yourselves"); Vin iii.136. See also separately. -- Note. vy!va&a (& a˚) only occur in the
meaning given above, and not in the sense of "covered, obstructed" [wrongly fr. v%] as given by Childers.
Correct the trsln given under by!va&a accordingly!
