of yaniia). — Used as (abl.) adv. vidha in meaning
"variously" at Pv 11.9^^ (C. expl"= vidhatabba, not
quite correctly ; PvA 135). Perhaps the phrase vidhasamatikkanta
is to be explained in this way, viz.
" excelUng in a variety of ways, higher than a variety
" going beyond all dis-
(of things)" or perhaps better :
tinctions " (i. e. of personality) ; free from prejudice
[i. e. No. 2] S 11.253; III. 80, 136, 170; A IV. 53.

asmi," " sadiso 'ham asmi," & " hino 'ham asmi "

than somebody else). See e. g. D 111.216 ; S 1.12 ; 111.48,
80, 127 ; v.56, 98 ; Nd* 195 ; Vbh 367 ; Sn 842 ; VbhA 496
