Re: Sv-n.t I 1-2 (introductory verse 10)

Dear Petra,

I know of two examples of the sattamītappurisa type in Kaccāyana's grammar:
rūpe saññā : rūpasaññā & saṃsāre dukkhaṃ : saṃsāradukkhaṃ (Kc 327 (Be)). I'm
not sure if these are the type you have in mind. I'm looking at
"cakkābhivuḍḍhi-" as similar: cakke abhivuḍḍhi with cakka being the cause
(nimitta) of the increase---growth on account of the cakka. I started out
thinking of the genitive relation of cakka but I have trouble agreeing with
the notion of growth of the cakka. Abh 781-2 gives 14 meanings of cakka. The
explanation of dhammacakka at Sv-nt I 36 is from Sv-pt I 24.

Best,
Jim

Dear Jim,

loc.? Do you know of examples? I think cakka is genitiv to abhivu.d.dhi
"growth of cakka" (whatever might be the exact meaning of cakka here). I
agree with you that it needs detailed investigation.

Curious to learn about your results.
Petra
