Venerable Bhante Yuttadhammo,
Thank you very much.
A good reminder to face the sights, sounds, etc. with understanding. We
cannot escape them yet, and they are not always so pleasant.
sa"nkha.m gacchati. This does not have to do with a trumpet. English: is
reckoned. See PED under sankhaa or sankhyaa: enumeration, definition.
Sankha.m gacchati, to be styled, called defined.
I met the term before: sa"nkhaata: so called. (PED does not use "n).

N: PTS has: is reckoned a rajah's portion. So, I take it to be just the
substantive a"nga, limb, factor. the niggahita makes: n, and vaa is: or. We
have a 't' in between. Or is reckoned indeed as a rajah's factor.
But I stand to be corrected with this sandhi.
With respect,
Nina.
