4nejja
4nejja and 4nañja [abstr. fr. an + *añja or *ejja = *ijja. The Sanskritised equivalent would be *iñjya or
*iñgya of ing to stir, move, with a peculiar substitution of *ang in P!li, referring it to a base with %
(probably Sk. %j, %ñjati) in analogy to a form like Sk. %*a = P!li a*a & i*a, both a & i representing Sk. %. The
form añja would thus correspond to a Sk. *añjya (*añgya). The third P. form !n -- eñja is a direct (later, and
probably re -- instituted) formation from Sk. iñjya, which in an interesting way became in BSk. re --
sanskritised to !ñijya (which on the other hand may represent !ñejja & thus give the latter the feature of a
later, but more specifically P!li form). The editions of P. Texts show a great variance of spelling, based on
MSS. vacillation, in part also due to confusion of derivation] immovability, imperturbability, impassibility.
