diÂÂha

Pali MO Hare Horner Punnaji Bodhi Rhys Davids (Mrs)Rhys Davids Thanissaro Walshe Woodward
diÂÂha seeing Hare the seen Punnaji the seen Rhys Davids (Mrs)Rhys Davids the seen Walshe Woodward
Pali Text Society, Pali English Dictionary:

DiÂÂha: 1. seen -- Since sight is the principal sense of perception as well as of apperception (cp. cakkhu), that which is seen is the chief representation of any sense-impression, and diÂÂha combined with suta (heard) and muta (sensed by means of smell, taste and touch), to which vi¾¾¤ta (apperceived by the mind) is often joined, gives a complete analysis of that which comprises all means of cognition and recognition. Thus diÂÂha+suta stands collectively for the whole series; 2. known, understood; diÂÂha pa¾ha a problem or question solved; 3. (adj.) visible, determined by sight, in connection with dhamma meaning the visible order of things, the world of sensation, this world (opposite sampar¤yika dhamma the state after death, the beyond). Usually in compounds: diÂÂhadhamma, of this world, in this world; diÂhabhinibbuta, attained to Nibb¤na in this birth; ditÂhanibb¤na, earthly; diÂÂhasukhavih¤ra, happy condition (or faring well) in this world; diÂÂhavedan¨ya to be perceived in this condition
