AW: shanti

[Guest guest]

Dear Sunderji,thank you, this was very helpful. Can you tell me whether there is a way to find out about the Harvard-Kyoto-conventional spelling of words via internet?Om shantiSitara--- Sunder Hattangadi <sunderh schrieb am Sa, 9.8.2008:Von: Sunder Hattangadi <sunderhBetreff: Re: shantiAn: advaitin Datum: Samstag, 9.

One has to use the Harvard-Kyoto convention for the entry:

 

zAnti f. tranquillity , peace , quiet , peace or calmness of mind ,

absence of passion , averting of pain (%{zAnti}! %{zAnti}! %{zAnti}!

may the three kinds of pain be averted!) , indifference to objects of

pleasure or pain Kat2hUp. MBh. & c. ; alleviation (of evil or pain) ,

cessation , abatement , extinction (of fire & c.) AV. & c. & c. ; a

pause , breach , interruption Hcat. ; any expiatory or propitiatory

rite for averting evil or calamity Br. & c. (cf. RTL. 346) ; peace ,

welfare , prosperity , good fortune , ease , comfort , happiness ,

bliss MBh. R. & c. ; destruction , end , eternal rest , death Ka1v.

Katha1s. BhP. ; = %{zAnti-kalpa} BhP. ; Tranquillity & c. personified

(as a daughter of S3raddha1 , as the wife of Atharvan , as the

daughter of Daksha and wife of Dharma) Hariv. Prab. Pur. ; m. N. of a

son of Indra MBh. ; of Indra in the tenth Manv-antara Pur. ; of a

Tushita (son of Vishn2u and Dakshin2a1) ib. ; of a son of Kr2ishn2a

and Ka1lindi1 ib. ; of a R2ishi MBh. ; of a son of An3giras ib. ; of

a disciple of Bhu1ti Ma1rkP. ; of a son of Ni1la and father of Su-

s3a1nti VP. ; (with Jainas) of an Arhat and Cakra-vartin L. ; of a

teacher (also called %{ratnA7kara- z-}) Buddh.
