(utsada, utsada)
utsada¦, m., and adj. (see also ucchada, °daka; = Pali ussada, used in all mgs. here recorded), (1) elevation, prominence, protuberance, swelling, esp. one of 7 such on the hands, feet, shoulders, and back of the neck of a mahāpuruṣa, constituting the 16th of the 32 lakṣaṇa, q.v. (and cf. Pali sattussada): Bbh 375.20 saptotsadakāyaḥ (Bhvr.), saptāsyotsadāḥ kāye jātāḥ, dvau hastayor dvau pādayoḥ dvāv aṃsayor eko grīvāyām; cf. the list Gv 400.9--11,…two aṃsakūṭayoḥ, one pṛṣṭhato grīvāyām; Mv i.226.19 utsadāḥ, subst.; in Bhvr. cpd. saptotsadaḥ Gv 400.8; Mvy 250; LV 105.18; 430.18; °daṃ; acc., Gv 128.1; saptotsadāṅga RP 47.9; and in other lists of lakṣaṇa, q.v.; (2) addition, supplement, in connection or composition with naraka, hell, one of the 16 supplementary hells which belong to each major hell (mahānaraka; = Pali ussada-niraya, not well defined PTSD): Mv i.5.1 aṣṭasu mahānarakeṣu pratyeka-ṣoḍaśotsadeṣu; 1.7.3 kuṇa- pāto muktā (n. pl.) narakotsadā (abl. sg.); i.8.12 aṣṭasu mahānarakeṣu ṣoḍaśotsadeṣu, and i.244.19 same; i.9.11 pratyekaṣoḍaśotsadā; iii.454.10 (aṣṭa mahānarakā…) pratyekaṃ ṣoḍaśotsadā; (3) adj., abundant, and n. abun- dance (distinction between the two often not clear; gener- ally used in prior or posterior part of cpds. where either could be assumed); certainly adj. in Bbh 379.19 prabhūte- notsadena viśadenānnapānena (3 synonymous adj., see viśada); Divy 646.16 utsadānnapāno bhavati, has abundant food and drink; MSV i.36.18 nāty-utsadamāṃsā tanugātrī, of not excessive flesh, slender-bodied; KP 111.2 (prose) utsada-pātracīvaradhāraṇatayā (an [ākāśa-] -paligodha, q.v., for an ascetic); 111.5 (vs) tatotsadaṃ cīvarapātra- dhāraṇaṃ (Tib. lhag par, surpassing, modifying dhāraṇaṃ); Śikṣ 56.6 yadi…lābha utsado bhavet, if the profit should be abundant (but Bendall and Rouse, should amount to a surplus); doubtless subst. in Gv 495.16 (bodhicittaṃ…) utsadabhūtam akṣayajñānatayā, it is an abundant store…; but 2d ed. utsa-bhūtam, spring, source; in most of the rest adj. seems simpler, but subst. possible: Mv ii.319.21 (vs) utsada-prāptaṃ (here perhaps better subst., attained to abundance, sc. of creatures, viz. of the followers of Māra, as following mārāṇa koṭī…shows; not reduction of utsadakuśalaprāptaṃ with Senart i.372 note); utsada- kuśala-saṃcayo Mv i.249.18; 251.12; ii.177.14; abstract in -tva, Śikṣ 248.5 (yasya, sc. tejodhātoḥ) cotsadatvāj jvarito jvarita iti saṃkhyāṃ gacchati, and thru the abun- dance of which a feverish man comes to be called feverish; Śikṣ 107.1 (vs) pradoṣa vardhenti vitarka utsadā (adj. with vitarka, or subst. in comp. with it? Bendall and Rouse the latter, but text prints as two words!); Bbh 252.16 kaṣāyotsada-kāla-tāṃ, condition of time abundant in kaṣāya; 16--17 niṣkaṣāyānutsadakaṣāya-kāla-tām (… free from, or not abundant in, kaṣāya); Mv i.61.3--4 (sattvā…) utsadalolā (so Senart em., mss. all corrupt; but read °lobhā, proved by Vism.) utsadadoṣā utsadamohā, cf. Pali Vism. i.103.19 (sattā…) lobhussadā dosussadā mohussadā, having abundant (Pali, abundant in, or having abundance of) lobha, doṣa, moha; SP 170.1 (vs) apāya- bhūmīs (so all Nep. mss.) tada utsadāsi, the stages of misfortune were then superabundant; LV 276.21 utsada- maṇimuktivaiḍūryaśaṅkhaśilāpravāḍarajatajātarūpyaṃ (? v.l. °rūpaṃ; sc. lokadhātuṃ); RP 35.11 (vs) asaṃyatā uddhata unnatāś ca, agauravā mānina lābha-utsadā [Page127-a+ 71] (cpd.)…sudūra te tādṛśa agrabodhaye (either abounding in profit or having abundance of profit). Peculiar is saptot- sada in Divy 620.13 (Utkaṭaṃ nāma droṇamukhaṃ pari- bhuṅkte sma) saptotsadaṃ satṛṇakāṣṭhodakaṃ dhānya- sahagataṃ…brahmadeyaṃ, and 620.28--621.1, similarly, with sa-saptotsadam; a close parallel in Pali, DN i.87.(6--)7 Ukkaṭṭhaṃ ajjhāvasati sattussadaṃ (comm. i.245.20 sattehi ussadaṃ, ussannaṃ bahujanaṃ ākiṇṇamanussaṃ… anekasattasamākiṇṇaṃ ca) satiṇakaṭṭhodakaṃ sadhañ- ñaṃ…brahmadeyyaṃ; cf. also Pv comm. 221.11 sattus- sadan ti pāpakārīhi sattehi ussannaṃ (this, in line 16, = uparūpari nicitaṃ). It seems clear that this sattussada in Pali = Skt. *sattvotsada, abounding in living creatures. It seems to have been falsely Sktized in Divy (which, or its source, obviously followed closely a MIndic original very close to the Pali of DN) to saptotsada, because the adapter knew familiarly this cpd. as one of the 32 lakṣaṇa (above, 1). Presumably he thought it meant here containing seven elevations of some sort, but I see no use in speculating further as to his intentions.
