vijYA
vijñā ( cf. AMg. a-viṇṇā; no such noun seems recorded in Skt. or Pali ), discretion, mature intelligence , in vijñāprāpta or vijña° (with MIndic shortening before cons. cluster? § 9.6 ), arrived at years of discretion , of a child reaching maturity: ṛṣikumāro vijña- Mv ii.211.18 (prose; v.l. vijñā-); iii.145.8 (here mss. both āvijña°); yadā vijñāprāpto 'smi iii.131.12 (no v.l. ); sā dārikā vijñaprāptā 156.4 (no v.l. ); yatra kāle vivṛddhā vijñaprāptā 184.6 (no v.l. ); all prose. Since prāpta , q.v. , may be preceded in comp. by an adj. , we might assume the Skt. adj. vijña as prior member here; but the occurrence of vijñā- makes this doubtful.
