aggii) juhati (cp. '^homa, "^hutta) to sacrifice (in)to the
fire A 11.207 ) often combd- with aggihuttan paricarati,
e.g. S 1. 166; Sn p. 79. aggiq namati & santappeti to
worship the fire A v. 235. aggissa (gen.) parieariko J YI.207
(cp. below °paricarika) ; aggissa adhanai) A IV. 41. — 3.
(ethical, always — ") the fire of burning, consuming, feverish
sensations. Freq. in standard set of 3 fires, viz. rag°, dos°,
moh", or the fires of lust, anger and bewilderment. The
number three may possibly have been chosen with reference
to the three sacrificial fires of Vedic ritual. At S
IV.19; A IV.41 sq. there are 7 fires, the 4 last of which
are ahuneyy", gahapat°, dakkhineyy", katth". But this
trinity of cardinal sins lies at the basis of Buddhist ethics,
& the fire simile was more probably suggested by the
number. D lti.217; It 92, Vbh 368. In late books are
found others: ind" the fire of the senses PvA 56; dukkh°
the glow of suffering ib. 60; bhavadukkli° of the misery
of becomings Sdhp. 552; vippatisar" burning remorse
TvA 60; SOk° burning grief ib. 41.
Note. The form aggini occurs only at Sn 668 & 670 in
the meaning of "pyre", and in comb°- with sama
"like", viz. aggini-samaq jalitai) 668 (= samantato jalitaq
aggii) Sn A 480); aggini-samasu 67o(=aggisamasu
Sn A 481). The form aggini in phrase niccagginl can
either be referred to gini (q. v.) or has to be taken as
nom. of aggini (in adj. function with i metri causa;
otherwise as adj. agginiij), meaning looking constantly
after the fire, i. e. careful, observant, alert.
