MR 21.106 , see HOS 27.163 ; her glance subdues the entire universe), ( 1 ) in loose sense, = bala, power, control : Mahāmaudgalyāyano … ṛddhibalatāṃ ṛddhivaśitāṃ ca anuprāpuṇe Mv iii.67.2 ; and so in 4, Śāriputra got abhijñāvaśitāṃ prajñāpāramitāṃ ca; ṛddhīye vaśitāṃ prāptā Mv iii.289.6 , said of rākṣasīs; kulavaśitā-prāptaṃ (of the kulaṃ of the Bodhisattva) LV 24.14 ( Mv has vaśi for vaśitā, see s.v. vaśiprāpta ); maraṇaṃ vaśitām avaśīkurute LV 175.9 ( vs ), death makes power powerless ; sarvadharmaiśvarya-vaśitā-prāptyarthaṃ LV 275.14 ; citte vaśī tvaṃ vaśitāṃ parāṃ gataḥ Mv i.164.13 ( vs , but only by Senart ʼs violent and dubious em. ); buddhadharmavaśitānuprāpuṇe, so read, Mv ii.415.16 ( mss. °tāni prā°; Senart em. wrongly); vinaya-vaśitā cāsmim Mv i.180.11 ( vs ; so read with 2 mss. ), and there is power of training in him (Buddha); samādhi-vaśitā-prāptasya [Page474-a] Bbh 58.2 ; sarva-ceto-vaśitā-parama-pāramitāprāptair (of arhant monks) SP 1.8 (see s.vv. vaśin and vaśiprāpta for similar expressions, esp.
