(svaBAva, svaBAva)
svabhāva¦ (Skt.), nature; used in Laṅk in several peculiar ways: (1) saptavidho bhāva-svabhāvo bhavati, yad uta, samudaya-svabhāvo bhava-sv° lakṣaṇa-sv° mahā- bhūta-sv° hetu-sv° pratyaya-sv° niṣpatti-sv° Laṅk 39.9--11; these are not explained here or elsewhere, and Suzuki has no explanation; (2) three svabhāva, mentioned Laṅk 132.4; 227.10; 348.10; and listed 67.2 ff. as parikalpita, paratantra, and pariniṣpanna (qq.v.) sva°; cf. Suzuki, Studies, 158 f.; in Mvy 1662--5 and Sūtrāl. xi.38--41 the term is lakṣaṇa (3) instead of svabhāva; Lévi renders indice (imaginaire, du relatif, and absolu). For other uses of the term in Laṅk see Suzuki ibid. 455 ff.
