Hekkhamma (nt.) [formally a derivation fr. nikkhamma
(ger. of nikkhamati) = Sk. 'nai^kramya, as shown also
by its semantic affinity to nUckhanta, in which the
metaphorical sense has entirely superseded the literal
one. On the other hand, it may be a bastard derivation
fr. nikk&ma = Sk. *nai$kamya, although the adj. nikkiima
does not show the prevailing meaning & the wide
range of nikkhanta, moreover formally we should expect
nekkamma. In any case the connection with kama
is pre-eminently felt in the connotation of n., as shown
by var. passages where a play of word exists between n.
