Praviśāmayati (प्रविशामयति).—(?) , perhaps stills, causes to subside: smṛtim upasthāpayati (q.v. 2) praviśāmayati Divyāvadāna 542.22; seems to be opposite (or, perhaps, equivalent?) of upasthāp°, but I do not understand the passage; Index leaves praviś° untranslated; context seems to throw no light on it. Cf. pratiśāmayati, which however does not seem to fit in this place.

context information

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.
