V"ta
V"ta1 (adj.) [vi+ita, pp. of i] deprived of, free from, (being) without. In meaning and use cp. vigata˚. Very
frequent as first part of a cpd., as e. g. the foll.: -- accika without a flame, i. e. glowing, aglow (of cinders),
usually combd with ˚dh(ma "without smoke" M i.365; S ii.99 (so read for v"tacchika)=iv.188=M i.74; D
ii.134; J i.15, 153; iii.447; v.135; DhA ii.68; Vism 301. -- iccha free from desire J ii.258. -- gedha without
greed Sn 210, 860, 1100; Nd1 250; Nd2 606. -- ta*ha without craving Sn 83, 741, 849, 1041, 1060; Nd1
211; Nd2 607. -- tapo without heat J ii.450. -- (d)dara fearless Th 1, 525; Dh 385. -- dosa without anger Sn
12. -- macchara without envy, unselfish Sn 954; Nd1 444; J v.398; Pv iii.115. -- mada not conceited So
328, cp. A ii.120. -- mala stainless (cp. vimala) S iv.47, 107; DA i.237; Miln 16. -- moha without
bewilderment Sn 13. I have to remark that the reading v"ta˚ seems to be well established. It occurs very
frequently in the Apad!na. Should we take it in meaning of "excessive"? And are we confronted with an
attribute of osadhi, the morning star, which points to Babylonian influence (star of the East)? As it occurs
in the Vatthug!th!s of the P!r!yanavagga, this does not seem improbable. -- ra'si rayless (?) Sn 1016 (said
of the sun; the expression is not clear. One MS. of Nd2 at this passage reads p"ta˚, i. e. with yellow, i. e.
golden, rays; which is to be preferred). Cp. note in Index to SnA. -- r!ga passionless Sn 11, 507, 1071; Pug
32; Pv ii.47; Miln 76, and frequently elsewhere. -- lobha without greed Sn 10, 469, 494. -- va**a colourless
Sn 1120. -- salla without a sting S iv.64. -- s!rada not fresh, not unexperienced, i. e. wise It 123.

Fangen von Wild & Vögeln dienende Gerät"), a decoy bird Th 1, 139. Kern, Toev. s. v. "vogelstrik."
