Entry 10364, Page 381, Col. 1
(prapaYcayati, prapaYcayati)
prapañcayati¦ (denom. from prapañca; Pali papañ- ceti), falsely fancies, imagines: MadhK 448.3, 8 (see prapañca); vikalpo prapañcayaṃ(s), pres. pple., Bbh 51.7 (see 51.3-5 s.v. prapañca); sa eṣa prapañcyate (pass.) kalpe (kalpo?) niḥprapañcās tathāgatā(ḥ) Mmk 164.9. In Mv ii.221.2 na khu me prapañcayitavyaṃ, Senart's em., assumed to mean I must not delay; this mg. of this verb is said to occur in Pali; but the Mv mss. read pra- padyetavyaṃ; curiously, PTSD proposes to derive papañceti from papajjate = prapadyate, but this is impossible on both formal and semantic grounds. I have no very good suggestion for the Mv passage; perh. I must certainly not rely on, be a burden to (my blind old parents). [Page381-b+ 71]
