arhat (aarhanta) [IW]
Arhat ('Foe Destroyer'), i.e. someone who has attained Nirvāṇa. Mahāvyutpatti: अर्हन् ॥ arhan ॥ dgra bcom pa ॥ དགྲ་བཅོམ་པ་. Wikipedia entry on etymology: The Sanskrit word arhat (Pāḷi arahant) is a present participle coming from the verbal root √arh "to deserve", cf. arha "meriting, deserving"; arhaṇa "having a claim, being entitled"; arhita (past participle) "honoured, worshipped". The word is used in the Ṛgveda with this sense of "deserving". A common folk etymology derives the word from ari (enemy) and hanta from the root √han (cf: Hunter) "to strike, to kill"; hence the translation "foe-destroyer". Professor Richard Gombrich has argued that the present participle is "jarring" and seems out of place when there is an adjective from the same root (arha). Since Jains used two Prakrit forms of the word arahanta and arihanta, the folk etymology may well be the correct etymology. Gombrich argues that this stems from the same metaphor as the Jain title jina "conqueror", whence jaina "related to the conqueror", i.e. Jainism. [Erick Tsiknopoulos]
