Dear friends,

the word this week is pa.ticca - (gerund of pacceti) on account of;
because of; in reference to; concerning.

The compound word pa.ticcasamuppaada, which is dependent origination,
is one of the principle concepts in Buddhism.

Another compound pa.ticcasamuppanna, an adjective, means "evolved by
reason of the law of causation".
