anuDarma
anudharma (= Pali anudhamma). Acc. to PTSD , Pali dhammānudhamma is used as a distributive or intensive cpd. , see under 1 anu , the Law in all its parts ; while Childers understands anudh° as lesser or inferior dhamma (against which see Lévi on Sūtrāl. xiii.1 comm. ). Acc. to CPD anudhamma means (right) method and is a ‘hypostasis of anu-dhammaṃ’ ( adv. , in accordance with dhamma ). In BHS (as also in Pali , e.g. Dhp. 20 ) there is some evidence suggesting that dharmānudharma is equivalent to dharmasya anu°, perhaps the true method of the law or the like: Bbh 284.1 na pratipadyante dharmasyānudharmam, they do not attain (? practise) the anudh° of the dh° ; 197.16 dharmasyānudharmaṃ pratipadyamānasya ( sc. Bodhisattvasya; not agreeing with dharmasya, which depends on anudh°); Gv 383.5 dharmasya cānudharmaṃ pratipadye, and I attain (? practise) the anudh° of the dh° . Without dharma in the context, we find anudharma-cārin Divy 617.16 (°riṇī, f. ), anudharma-praticārin Mvy 1123 (°rī). So we should probably interpret all cpds. of dharmānudharma-, which usually parallel the like cpds. in Pali : dharmānudharma-cārin Dbh 32.21 ; °rma-pratipatti, attainment (? practice) of the anudh° of the dh° Mvy 1801 ( mss. erroneously omit dharma after anu; em. Kyoto ed. ); Dbh 33.29 ; Bbh 204.7 ; KP 9.2 ; LV 32.16 ; °rmapratipanna Bbh 84.4 ; LV 179.12 ; 377.14 ; Mvy 1124 . In Mvy 9321 are mentioned ṣaḍ anudharmāḥ, after 9320 ṣaḍ dharmāḥ; so also Bhīk 16b.4 ṣaṭsu dharmeṣu ṣaṭsv anudharmeṣu śikṣā; in neither place do I find any clue to what the six anudharma (or dharma) are. I have not noted any adv. anudharmaṃ (parallel to Pali anudhammaṃ).
