conceit; pride
Vidhā (feminine) [cf. Sanskrit vidhā] 1. mode, manner, sort, kind; proportion, form, variety D III 103 (ādesana°); Thig 395 (cakkhu° "shape of an eye" translation); Vibh-a 496 (in explanation of kathaṃ-vidha: "ākāra-saṇṭhānaṃ vidhā nāma"); Sv I 222 (iddhi°), 294 (in explanation of tividha-yañña: "ettha vidhā vuccati ṭhapanā" i.e. performance, arrangement), 299 (similarly tisso vidhā = tīṇi ṭhapanāni; of yañña). — Used as (ablative) adverb vidhā in meaning "variously" at Pv II 9 52 (commentary explanation = vidhātabba, not quite correctly; Pv-a 135). Perhaps the phrase vidhāsamatikkanta is to be explained in this way, viz. "excelling in a variety of ways, higher than a variety (of things)" or perhaps better: "going beyond all distinctions" (i.e. of personality); free from prejudice [i.e. No. 2] S II 253; III 80, 136, 170; A IV 53. 2. (ethically) in special sense: a distinctive feature (of a person as different from others), a "mode" of pride or delusion, a "form" of conceit. As such specified as three kinds of conceit (tisso vidhā), viz. "seyyo'ham asmi," "sadiso'ham asmi," and "hīno'ham asmi" (i.e. I am better than somebody else, equal to, and worse than somebody else). See e.g. D III 216; S I 12; III 48, 80, 127; V 56, 98; Nidd I 195; Vibh 367; Snp 842; Vibh-a 496 (māno va vidhā nāma). — The adjective form is vidha: see seperate.
