(having a splendor that obscures the moon and sun): Lalitavistara 292.8 (prose). But v.l. °karaṇa, which, being much commoner (I have noted no other case of °kara), is very likely the true reading.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
