Manana 153 Mayavin
an abstr. der., it might be expl'' as " measuring, taking
measures," which suits the context letter. The BSk.
form is still more puzzling, viz. manapya " something
pleasant " : Mvyut § 265] a sort of penance, attached
to the commission of a sanghadisesa offence DhsA 399
(+parivasa). °r) deti to inflict penance on somebody

is quite synonymous with hadaya. The word, used
absolutely, is more a t. t. in philosophy than a living

use, where its connection with mano is still more felt.
Its absolute use probably originated from the latter
use. — DhsA 140 ( = mano); Vbh 144 sq. (in definition
