Entry 3727, Page 138, Col. 2
(upapattivaSitA, upapatti-vaSitA)
upapatti-vaśitā¦, supernatural power of choosing rebirth (Senart i, note 586 conjectures, of choosing the family he is to be born in; perhaps too limited), one of the vaśitā, q.v.: Mvy 775; Dbh 70.13, defined sarvaloka- dhātūpapattisaṃdarśana(-tayā); cf. SP 260.11--12, s.v. aupapāduka; in SP 228.12 (vs) read upapatti-vaśītāsya [Page139-a+ 71] = °vaśitā (ī m.c.) asya, which mss. clearly intend; ed. has false em. See also under upapatti, Mv i.282.18.
