Source: BuddhaSasana: Concise Pali-English Dictionaryvusita : (pp. of vasati) dwelt; fulfilled; come to perfection.
Source: Sutta: The Pali Text Society's Pali-English DictionaryVusita, (Kern, Toev. s. v. vasati takes it as vi+uṣita (of vas2), against which speaks meaning of vivasati “to live from home. ” Geiger, P. Gr. § 661 & 195 explained it as uṣita with prothetic v, as by-form of vuttha. Best fitting in meaning is assumption of vusita being a variant of vosita, with change of o to u in analogy to vuttha; thus=vi+osita “fulfilled, come to an end or to perfection”; cp. pariyosita. Geiger’s explanation is supported by phrase brahmaQariyaṃ vasati) fulfilled, accomplished; (or: ) lived, spent (=vuttha); only in phrase vusitaṃ brahmacariyaṃ (translation Dial. I. 93; “the higher life has been fulfilled”) D. I, 84 (cp. Dh. I, 225= vutthaṃ parivutthaṃ); It. 115 (ed. vūsita°); Sn. 463, 493; Pug. 61.—Also at D. I, 90 neg. a°, with ref. to avusitavā, where Rh. D. (Dial. I. 112) translates “ill-bred” and “rude, ” hardly just. See also arahant II. A. (Page 646)
Pali is the language of the Tipiṭaka, which is the sacred canon of Theravāda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.
