sArAyaRIya
sārāyaṇīya (on etym. see below), ( 1 ) nt. , hospitable entertainment , esp. with food: °yaṃ karetsu (so mss. , prec. by na) saṃbuddhasya punaḥ-punaḥ Mv i.304.5 ( vs ), (the villagers) gave entertainment to the Perfectly Enlightened One again and again ( sc. with food, which they had previously refused him); ṛṣiṇā tasya lubdhakasya °ṇīyaṃ kṛtaṃ, yathā ṛṣidharmo phalodakam upanāmitaṃ Mv ii.96.17 ; ( 2 ) adj. , f. °yā (= saṃrañjana, °nīya, saṃrajanīya ; = Pali sārāṇīya, which Childers derives from the Skt. root smṛ, following standard Pali comms. , e.g. MN comm. i.110.16 ff., ii.394.31 f. , but this is certainly wrong; Kern , cited PTSD , rightly regards BHS saṃrañjana, °nīya, as the true original; all forms can be derived from this; saṃ- gave sā-, and for -rañja- was substituted first *-rāja-, both by § 3.3 , then -rāya-, as in BHS , § 2.34 ; finally in Pali this -rāya- was contracted to the single syllable -rā-, Pischel 149, 150 , cf. § 3.118 , Geiger 20 ; the rare BHS saṃrajanīya, if not an error for saṃrañj°, may be derived from the unnasalized form of the same root raj), courteous, pleasing, polite, friendly : this form noted only in Mv iii.47.18 etc. (cited, with list of passages, s.v. saṃmodate ; always °yāṃ kathām); in iii.394.14 , however, mss. sāropaṇīyāṃ instead ( Senart em. ), and one of them also reads sāropayitvā for the following vyatisārayitvā.
