CAdayati
( chādayati , Skt. , ( 1 ) covers : in Mv iii.55.4 , text, kuñjaraṃ pi so … ṣaṣṭihāyanaṃ balaśaktikāye chāditavyaṃ manyeya, yo me … ṣaḍ vābhijñā balaṃ (so mss. ) vaśībhāvaṃ chādayitavyaṃ manyeyā (the last part, from yo …, repeated 6—7, 8, 9—10). For the first chāditavyaṃ, Senart thinks a form of chaḍḍeti must be read; but the Pali parallel SN ii.222.10 reads tālapattikāya chādetabbaṃ, (an elephant) to be covered with a palm-leaf , which proves chāditavyaṃ correct. Perhaps read before it (with the Pali ) tāla-pattrikāye; possibly, however, tala-śaktikāye (closer to our mss. ), with an upheld arm or hand , see s.v. talaśaktikā . ( 2 ) protects, helps, saves ( cf. pw s.v. 6, schützen ): in LV 168.8 ( vs ) read, kṛpakaruṇā janiyā atiraudre chāditu so bho (so best ms. A; all other mss. and Calc. śobhe, which [Page236-a] is uninterpretable), (by you) taking pity and compassion on your very cruel (foe), he, lo! was protected (helped). So Tib. seems clearly to read; it ends, de ni ( that very one ) khyod kyis ( by you ) bskyabs ( protect, help )).
