(vadya, vadya)
vadya¦ (nt. ? = Pali vajja, which is usually derived from Skt. varjya, tho this is not used as a noun in this sense; if so, vadya would be a false Sktization of vajja, as in next), fault, sin: (read) aṇumātreṣu vadyeṣu bhaya- darśāvī Mv iii.52.1 = Pali aṇumattesu vajjesu bhayadas- sāvī (see CPD s.v. aṇumatta), seeing danger in (even) very small faults; a common phrase in Pali; since Pali vajja is common in other locutions, there seems no doubt that we must read vadyeṣu; mss. corrupt, °mātreṣevadyeṣu or °mātreṣvabandheṣu; Senart em. °mātreṣv āvadyeṣu (intending Skt. avadyeṣu? this would seem plausible but for the close Pali parallel).
