Re: ratyaa, ratya.m

Dear Ole,

I'm just following up on my previous reply regarding ".thaane". I think I
have to revise my understanding of the term as it seems to be used
adverbially in the sense of "in the appropriate places" (= yuttattha?) or
"in some cases" (= kvaci). The two previous suttas 67-8 also use the same
term and I think it is just carried forward into Sd 69. As Sd  67 has its
counterpart in Kc 28, I was able to track down an explanation of the term in
the Kaccaayanatthadiipanii as follows:

".thaanasaddo yuttatthavaacako, adhippaayatthavasena kvaci saddattho.
kvacisadda.t.thaane .thitattaa." --p. 99 (I think "kvaci saddattho" should
probably be "kvacisaddattho")

Jim
