(saKila, saKila<h>1)
1 sakhila¦, adj. (= Pali id.; cf. sākhilya and 1 akhila), soft, smooth, once of (a garment of) cloth: sakhilā khu-d- ayaṃ…karpāsānāṃ paṭapilotikasaṃghāṭī, mṛdukā-d- ayaṃ…(same words), masinā-d-ayaṃ…, sukhumā-d- ayaṃ…, tanukā-d-ayaṃ…, etc., Mv iii.53.17; this proves that the usual interpretation, friendly, cannot be right; it is of course based on the assumption of derivation from sakhi, but this is proved wrong by the Mv passage; other- wise recorded in Pali and BHS only of speech, esp. the Buddha's; in Pali regularly assoc. with saṇha = ślakṣṇa and mudu = mṛdu; sakhilo glossed muduvacano DN comm. i.287.3 ff., and all comms. agree essentially on this, as well as on sākhalya, sākhalla (= sākhilya), which is the opposite of pharusa(-vācā etc.), e.g. Dhs. 1343; DN comm. iii.981.15--22; sākhallena Jāt. iv.57.5, glossed maṭṭhavacanena (note that maṭṭha is also applied to fine cloth, -sāṭaka Vism. 284.13); the mg. therefore is smooth, and of speech suave, mild, gentle: Buddhasya sakhilā girā Mv i.314.12 (vs), repeated below; su-sakhila-ślakṣṇa-vākyo ii.395.5; sakhilā Mvy 495, in list of epithets of Buddha's speech, = Tib. chub pa (? acc. to Das accomplished, perfected; Chin. seems to mean affecting the hearts of all creatures); of other (pious) persons, sūrataḥ (mss. su°) sakhilo mṛduḥ Mv ii.371.8 (vs); su-sakhila-vācā iii.280.19 (vs, by em.); saṃmodako sakhilo ślakṣṇavāco (mss. °cā) iii.372.4 (vs). The etym. of the word is obscure; BHS akhila = paruṣa, harsh (of speech), suggests interpretation as sa-khila, but may of course be a case of popular etym.; no meaning of khila is known which would seem to fit.
