Dear Nina,
Good question - I don't know the answer. I got that
particular translation from the Bhaavanaa Vandanaa
book, and that is how Bhante Gunaratana translates it.
I looked at the book again, and noticed that the word
is actually spelled sammadakkhaataani. I looked in
the PED and quite frankly was quite confused as the
meaning of this word "dakkhaata".
Can anyone else shed light on this?

Mettta,
John
