1. SBE 45, 22 f. - Silavanta bahussuya should be understood as "(both) virtuous and learned".
2. Cf. the etymology accepted in Ratnachandra, An illustrated Ardha-Magadhi Dictionary, S.V., (vasyamat).
3. Cf. Charpentier 299, ad Utt 5.18, where Devendra's text is quoted: ärsatväd vasyavatām, vasyany ǎyattāni prakramad indriyani vidyante yeşām te vasyavantaḥ.
4. Cf. Utt 5.28b: samjamam tavam (two words which are often associated).
5. Bahussuya probably moreoever implies babbhāgama, a bahuvrihi with which it is often coupled in the Jaina canon (cf. Vavahara-sutta 1.35; 3.3; 6.1 f...). The phrase points to a religious "der gelernt hat in Texten (sutra) und Tradition" (in this context, agama artha, according to the Ctt.), cf. W. Schubring, Drei Chedasütras des Jaina-Kanons, Hamburg 1966 (ANIS 11), p. 76; 69; thus, the expression relates to a monk who is knowledgeable and holds right views, cf. "instruit et averti", ib. 57.
Compare Asoka Rock Edict XII J (Erragudi): bahusuta ca kayaänägamă ca, "sowohl gut informiert als auch aufgeschlossen" (U. Schneider, Die grossen Felsen-Edikte Asokas, Wiesbaden 1978 (FBI), 115).
Buddhist texts have expressions such as:
bahu-ssutam dhamma-dharam, Th 1030 (cf. 1031),
"who has great learning, is expert in the doctrine", (K.R. Norman, Elders' Verses I); cf., in the Gandhari Dharmapada (249 and 248):
bahu-şuda dhama-dhara and
dharma-kama baho-şuda.
