(niyanti, niyanti)
niyanti¦, nom. °tiḥ, addiction to, absorption in, so read with v.l. Mvy 5383 for (kāma-)niyantrī, text; Mironov niyanti (so!); = niyati, q.v.; the Jap. definition (for kāma-niyantrī) means one who pursues pleasure; Bhīk 24a.3 kāmaniyantiḥ, without v.l., confirming the form and mg.; occurs in a list of synonyms, kāma-snehaḥ, -premaḥ, kāmālayaḥ, kāmaniyantiḥ, kāmādhyavasānam. The Tib. on Mvy 5383 is confused and contains, after ḥdod pa la, for lusts (kāma-), either ḥtsuṅs pa or ḥchums pa; the latter is prob. correct and means wishing, longing for (see Jä. and Das, the latter s.v. ḥchum pa).
