मात्रास्वप्रत्ययसन्धाने नष्टस्य पुनरुत्थानम् mātrāsvapratyayasandhāne naṣṭasya punarutthānam
The line
When one's own awareness is joined to the measures, what was lost rises again.
नेपालीमा
आफ्नो बोध मात्राहरूमा जोडिँदा हराएको फेरि उठ्छ।
Where it sits
Kṣemarāja (क्षेमराज) reads the long locative as that joining. The other cut, mātrāsu (मात्रासु), would put the joining in the measures. Both cuts are in the letters. The genitive naṣṭasya (नष्टस्य) is what rises.
Split: mātrāsvapratyayasandhāne (मात्रास्वप्रत्ययसन्धाने) + naṣṭasya (नष्टस्य) + punar (पुनर्) + utthānam (उत्थानम्)
Sanskrit, in depth
The words
| Word | Grammar | Sense |
|---|---|---|
| mātrāsvapratyayasandhāne (मात्रास्वप्रत्ययसन्धाने) | locative singular, neuter | when the measures are joined to one's own awareness. mātrā (मात्रा) is a measure, an object as a quantity of experience. svapratyaya (स्वप्रत्यय) is one's own cognition. sandhāna (सन्धान) is a joining. The letters mātrāsva (मात्रास्व) also admit the cut mātrāsu (मात्रासु), in the measures. |
| naṣṭasya (नष्टस्य) | genitive singular, masculine | of what was lost. naṣṭa (नष्ट) is destroyed, disappeared. |
| punaḥ (पुनः) | indeclinable | again. |
| utthānam (उत्थानम्) | nominative singular, neuter | a rising. |
The phrases
When the measures and one's own awareness are joined, what was lost rises again. The lost thing is the even seeing, or the fourth, from the lines just above. The line says of what was lost.
Sanskrit in this line
punaḥ (पुनः) before u (उ) loses visarga and the recited form is punarutthānam (पुनरुत्थानम्). Visarga before a vowel becomes r (र्). naṣṭasya (नष्टस्य) is genitive, so the rising belongs to the lost thing.
Say it back
Say the locative one way, then say the other cut in one sentence.
