Cita

Published: 16.01.2018

1. A part of the method of learning by heart (by rote);

committing to memory (a lesson, a text etc.) in such a way that one can reproduce it even when asked from beginning, middle or end.

pucchitassa ādimajjhaṃte savvaṃ vā sigghamāgacchati taṃ jitam.

(Anu 13 p. 7)

2. A state of Karma

in this state, along with the time, there is a gradual decrease in the pradeśa (quantity of Karma-pudgalas (material clusters qua Karma)); consequently, although the number of karmic Paramāṇus (the ultimate atoms), responsible for increase in intensity (of karmic fruition), goes on decreasing, there is a gradual rise in its power of fruition.

'citasya' uttarottarasthitiṣu pradesahānyā rasavṛddhayā'vasthāpitasya.

(PrajñāVṛ Pa 459)
