(praskanda, praskanda, °Da)
praskanda, °dha¦ (?), in SP 54.8 (vs) adj., fallen, sinking: praskanda (sc. sattvān; acc. pl.) saṃsāri, (I see creatures) fallen into (sinking in) the saṃsāra; note in KN says praskanna is to be expected, and WT read so, by em.; Pali pakkhanna is said in PTSD to be often written pakkhanta; AMg. pakkhanda = moving, walking, Rat- nach.; in LV 104.18 (prose) nānā-kudṛṣṭi-grahaṇa-(read gahana-, below)-praskandhānāṃ (so!, dh) sattvānāṃ, paralleled by Gv 288.13 dṛṣṭi-kṛta-gahana-praskandhānāṃ sattvānāṃ; Tib. on LV ḥthibs pos, dense, close, a covering, confirming gahana as in Gv for grahaṇa; khebs pa, cover- ing, for praskandha; see below, and note Dhātup. root skandh as v.l. for skand; twice Mvy has what may be the same word, but both times there are variants in the text, and northern translations are confused; Mvy 6815 praskandaḥ, v.l. °dhaḥ (so, °dhaḥ, Mironov); Tib. ḥjug pa, or, ḥgro ba (both something like enter or move), or skem pa (dry up!); Chin. going in, or, going away; Jap. enter(ing); Mvy 7172 praskannaḥ, v.l. (with Mironov) praskandhaḥ (Mir. v.l. °ndaḥ, and, above line, skannaḥ); Tib. rab tu zhug pa (entering), or byiṅ ba (sinking); so Chin., going inside, or sinking. The mg. sinking, as adj., which fits Skt. pra-skand-fairly well, would fit both the SP passage and the LV-Gv parallel passages, of creatures sinking (entered would also be possible) in the thicket of heresy.
