    Abhi + Niihaara = taking oneself out to, way of acting, (proper) behaviour, endeavour, resolve, aspiration.

    Abhibhuu + Aayatana = position of a master or lord, station of mastery. The traditional account of these gives 8 stations or stages of mastery over the senses.

    Apa + Vyaama ( or Byaama) = disrespect, neglect.

    Upasampanna = [past participle of upasampajjati?] obtained, got, received; in special sense of having attained the recognition of bhikkhuship, ordained.
