Senses
2. Visaṭā
feminine “hanging on,” clinging, attachment. The word seems to be a quasi-short form of visattikā. Thus at Snp.715 (= taṇhā C.; spelling t); Dhs.1059 (translation “diffusion,” i.e. fr. vi + sṛ; spelling ṭ) = Cnd. s.v. taṇhā (spelt with t).
abrh. formation fr. vi + sañj, spelling t for tt: see visatta. The writing of MSS. concerning t in these words is very confused
3. Visāta
adjective crushed to pieces, destroyed MN.ii.102 (˚gabbha, with mūḷha-gabbha; variant reading vighāta).
fr. vi + śat, cp. sāṭeti
