Dear Ole and Jim,
Ole, you explained some time ago about the napumsaka use of kama.m,
adverbial use.
In the Visuddhimagga Tiika (Ch XIV, 186) this case came up, and here it
seems to refer to all inclusive, it pervades all, sabba.m. Is there a rule
in the Kaccayaana?
To give the context, just a few texts:
Text Vis.:186. Herein, the word 'whatever' includes without exception.
'Materiality' prevents over-generalization. Thus materiality is
comprised without exception by the two expressions.
186. tattha ya.mki~nciiti anavasesapariyaadaana.m. ruupanti

I am especially interested at the napu.msakaniddesaaraha.m sabba.m
byaapetvaa...
It seems it has to do with sabba.m.
Thank you, Nina.
