Dear James,
In Warder's text on page 31 he explains how for
negative injunctions,
prohibitions, and wishes using "maa," sometimes it is
paired the 2nd
person of the aorist tense and loses its time
reference, instead
applying to present or future. This is why I think
that the translation
is "Do not approach," because the verb upasa.mkami has
lost its time
reference as an aorist.
With metta,
Alan
