Entry 16407, Page 583, Col. 2
(sarvakAlaka, sarvakAlaka)
sarvakālaka¦ (see also sārvakālika), adj. with pud- gala, all-black, completely impure, said of a delinquent monk who has gone thru five rites of purification, but all wrongly done: MSV iii.74.7; 77.6. If one or more of the five rites is done properly, the others wrongly, the delinquent remains impure and is called (successively) yadbhūyaskālaka, mostly black; upārdhakālaka, half black; ekadeśakālaka; and pradeśakālaka; if all are properly done, he is pure, apagatakālaka, q.v. In the virtual repetition, p. 78, pradeśakālakaḥ is accidentally omitted, but ekadeśakālakaḥ (line 13) has the definition given above to pradeśa-k° (only one of the five rites being done wrongly), which seems likely to be right. The ms. several times writes -kālika for -kālaka.
