adhyāvara
Entry 496, Page 17, Col. 2
(aDyAvara, aDyAvara)
adhyāvara¦, m. (= Pali ajjhāvara), associate, atten- dant, member of retinue: adhyāvarā (acc. pl.; so all mss., Lefm. em. °carā) kṛtvana sarvadevān LV 395.9 (vs), having made all gods my associates. CPD and PTSD suggest emending the Pali form, also, to ajjhācara. But the two forms confirm each other and must surely be kept, what- ever the etymology of this rare and obscure word may be.
