vivaraṇa, (1)
Entry 14182, Page 499, Col. 1
(vivaraRa, vivaraRa)
vivaraṇa, (1)¦ should mean opening; so Skt. and Pali; mg. uncertain in sarvāvaraṇa-vivaraṇa-paryutthāna-(q.v.)- vigataḥ Mvy 814, ep. of Bodhisattvas; Tib. sgrib pa (= āvaraṇa) daṅ chad pa (must = vivarṇa) daṅ kun nas ldaṅ ba (= paryutthāna) thams cad (= sarva) daṅ bral ba (= vigata). I should like to render: free from the opening out and overwhelming (taking possession) of the ‘obscurations’ (sins); Das gives to open…to give out among other mgs. of the confusing word(s) chad pa. But the repeated daṅ in Tib. suggests rather a three-member dvandva. Another meaning of chad pa is punishment, but it is hard to see how vivaraṇa could get that mg.; (2) (nt.?) a high number: Gv 105.25, = varaṇa Mvy 7852 (cited from Gv; not in Gv 133).
