pauruṣya (1)¦ (nt.; Pali porisa is used in this sense; cf. pauruṣa), service, position or activity of a servant: rāja-pauruṣyādi Bbh 195.3, the position of a king's henchman; (2) ifc., perh. adj. (= Pali porisiya), or subst. in Bhvr. cpd. (na) sādhika-pauruṣyaṃ (vṛkṣam adhirok- ṣyāmaḥ) Mvy 8629, (a tree) above a man's height; but Mironov °pauruṣam, and so Prāt 537.18, implying the noun pauruṣa, man's height, so used in Skt. Instead of na sādh° (Mvy prints nasādh° as one word) Mironov [Page356-a+ 71] nāsādh°, erroneously; cf. Pali MN i.74.12 sādhika-porisā, of more than a man's height; this is confirmed by Tib. mi gaṅ tsam las mthor, to the height of an average man. For na sādhika Prāt (l.c.) has a lacuna, which Finot fills by the erroneous nāsādhikaṃ from Minayeff's Mvy. Cf. prec. (3).
