(avakAmasevA, ava-kAma-sevA)
ava-kāma-sevā¦ (see ava), no practice of love: LV 28.22 (vs; wrongly divided in ed.) dvātriṃśa māsām (= māsān, acc. pl.) avakāmaseva (= °vā, n. sg.) hi, for she abstained from love-making for 32 months; so Tib. renders. There is a v.l. akāma for avakāma but it is metrically impossible.
