pArAjika · adjective · pārājika 2
pārājika , f. °kā , adj. (= Pali id. ; on etym. see Lévi, JA. Nov.—Dec. 1912 , 505 f. , who assumes Pktic form for *pārācika, from parāc-, parāñc-, plus -ika; as Lévi notes, Pali comms. connect with parā-jayati; so also Northern Buddhists must sometimes have taken it, since Bbh uses pārājayika , q.v. , which may be only a hyper- Sktism , see Wogihara, Lex. 34 ; Lévi notes AMg. pārañciya as supporting his view, suggesting derivation from Skt. parāñc-; a mysterious Skt. pārañcika, acc. to Schmidt, Nachträge , Bruch, Verletzung , occurs in Kauṭ. Arth. , 195.16 in Sham.¹ , hastapāda-°kaṃ vā kurvataḥ, or of one causing injury(?) to hands or feet ; neither Meyer , 307.11 and note 4, nor Gaṇapati, who glosses by parāñcikam anyathābhāvaṃ saṃdhivighaṭanam iti yāvad, can offer any real explanation of the word, but it looks startlingly like the AMg. form), involving expulsion from the order of monks; of the utmost gravity (of a sin): catvāraḥ °kā dharmāḥ Mvy 8358 ; the four are listed 8364—7 as unchastity, stealing, taking life, and falsely claiming superhuman powers (uttaramanuṣyadharma-pralāpa, see s.v. uttari ); the same four in Pali (for the last, uttarimanussadhammaṃ …) Vin. iii.1 ff. ; °kā dharmāḥ Prāt 476.7 ; °Kenā dharmeṇanudhvaṃsayet 481.6 , should accuse falsely of a pār° offense ; f. , without [Page342-b] noun ( sc. vipatti or āpatti), amūlikayā °jikayā MSV iii.109.21 ; āpat pārājikā Śikṣ 66.16 , a pār° offense ; said of the person guilty of such an offense, deserving of expulsion , °ko bhavati Prāt 477.1, 5 ; 478.5 ; similarly Śikṣ 143.7 ; (bhikṣuṇī …) °jikā Bhīk 28b.1 ; in Śikṣ 59.12 read parājitaḥ, with same phrase in 60.12, 61.3 , instead of text pārājikaḥ, cf. Bendall and Rouse p. 61 note 3 . Cf. also next.
