Paṭṭhāna (neuter) [from pa + sthā, cf. paṭṭhahati] setting forth, putting forward; only in compound sati° setting up of mindfullness (q.v. and see discussion of term at D.B. II 324). Besides in later literal meaning "origin," starting point, cause, in title of the 7th book of the Abhidhamma, also called Mahāpakaraṇa. See Ledi, JPTS 1915-16, page 26; Mrs. Rh.D., Tika page 1, VI. — At Saddh 321 it has the Sanskrit meaning of "setting out" (?).
