(aSEkza, aSEkza)
aśaikṣa¦, m. (= Pali asekha, asekkha; neg. of śaikṣa, q.v.), one who no longer needs religious training, being in the 8th stage (see Childers s.v. sekho); = arhant: °ṣaḥ Mvy 1734; °ṣa-mārgaḥ Mvy 1320, the third parivarta of the dharmacakra, in which ‘misery is known, its origin abandoned, its suppression attained, the way leading to its suppression realized’ (1321--24). Often in cpd. śaik- ṣāśaikṣa, or bracketed with śaikṣa as separate word; see śaikṣa; its place may be taken by arhant, e.g. Mv i.158.7; Divy 399.24. Written aśaiṣya in LV 250.18, see s.v. śaiṣya.
