(avakrAntaka, -avakrAntaka)
-avakrāntaka¦, also °ika, f. °ikā, only in tīrthikāv°, one who has gone over to heretics, a renegade Buddhist: Mvy 8759 °takaḥ; Bhīk 16b.2 °tikā. The corresp. Pali, Vin. i.89.35, has titthiya-pakkantaka, apparently = prakrānta(ka); but I suspect that the true original of both this and avakr° was *apakrāntaka; Pali apakkamati and apakkanta are used in mgs. very close to this, and neither ava-nor pra-kram- seems so appropriate.
