(anuDarma, anuDarma)
anudharma¦ (= Pali anudhamma). Acc. to PTSD, Pali dhammānudhamma is used as a distributive or intensive cpd., see under 1 anu, the Law in all its parts; while Childers understands anudh° as lesser or inferior dhamma (against which see Lévi on Sūtrāl. xiii.1 comm.). Acc. to CPD anudhamma means (right) method and is a ‘hypostasis of anu-dhammaṃ’ (adv., in accordance with dhamma). In BHS (as also in Pali, e.g. Dhp. 20) there is some evidence suggesting that dharmānudharma is equiv- alent to dharmasya anu°, perhaps the true method of the law or the like: Bbh 284.1 na pratipadyante dharmasyānu- dharmam, they do not attain (? practise) the anudh° of the dh°; 197.16 dharmasyānudharmaṃ pratipadyamānasya (sc. Bodhisattvasya; not agreeing with dharmasya, which depends on anudh°); Gv 383.5 dharmasya cānudharmaṃ pratipadye, and I attain (? practise) the anudh° of the dh°. Without dharma in the context, we find anudharma-cārin Divy 617.16 (°riṇī, f.), anudharma-praticārin Mvy 1123 (°rī). So we should probably interpret all cpds. of dhar- mānudharma-, which usually parallel the like cpds. in Pali: dharmānudharma-cārin Dbh 32.21; °rma-pratipatti, attainment (? practice) of the anudh° of the dh° Mvy 1801 (mss. erroneously omit dharma after anu; em. Kyoto ed.); Dbh 33.29; Bbh 204.7; KP 9.2; LV 32.16; °rma- pratipanna Bbh 84.4; LV 179.12; 377.14; Mvy 1124. In Mvy 9321 are mentioned ṣaḍ anudharmāḥ, after 9320 ṣaḍ dharmāḥ; so also Bhīk 16b.4 ṣaṭsu dharmeṣu ṣaṭsv anudharmeṣu śikṣā; in neither place do I find any clue to what the six anudharma (or dharma) are. I have not noted any adv. anudharmaṃ (paralled to Pali anudhammaṃ).
