(recorded once in Skt. , pw 7.373 °nakriyā, weaving-activity ), ( 1 ) (act of) weaving : paṭa-vāyana Mmk 57.27, 29 ; 59.27 ; ( 2 ) causing (a weaver) to weave (a robe for himself; a sin for a monk): Mvy 8409 = Tib. ḥthag tu ḥjug pa , causing to weave ; refers to the rule of Pali Vin. iii.256.26—27 ; var. vayanam, which Mironov adopts, but noting v.l. vāyanam; in view of the causative mg. , the ā-form seems likely to be right ( cf. vāpayati , Pali vāyāpeti); vayana is unrecorded except Skt.
