(avarRa, avarRa)
? avarṇa¦, adj., in Mv iii.343.1 °ṇaś ca, epithet of the Buddha's voice (svara); hence must be complimentary; but Skt. id. and Pali avaṇṇa are normally uncomplimen- tary. Senart has no v.l. or note and does not list the word in his Index. Perhaps semi-MIndic for Skt. avarṇya (or read this?), indescribable; cf. Pali avaṇṇanīya.
