Re: questions based on Digha Tika

To all those interested in the discussion,

<< Atha vā asādhāraṇañāṇavisesanibandhanabhūtā sātisayaṃ niravasesañca
sabbaññutaññāṇaṃ viya savisayabyāpitāya mahākaruṇābhāvaṃ upagatā karuṇāva
bhagavato atisayena hadayasītalabhāvahetūti āha ‘‘karuṇāsītalahadayan”ti. >>

With the word  "savisayabyāpitāya", I'm more puzzled by the suffixes of
"byāpitāya" than I am with "sa". It appears to me there is a past
participle of the causative verb "vyāpeti" with a singular feminine case
ending. If it is an adjective it should qualify a feminine noun also ending
in -āya which is absent here unless the "mahākaruṇāya" in the compund that
follows can serve that purpose even though the "ya" is hidden.
