 * 'dhyAna' with ITRANS @ http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/monier/indexcaller.php
 * the Dhyāna article doesn't as yet really convey the complexity of the term.

NB: I know that √ = root but buggered if I know what ° denotes! There is no key for symbols and they are not included amongst abbreviations. The symbol is actually present in the print version of the MW: http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/cgi-bin/monier/serveimg.pl?file=/scans/MWScan/MWScanjpg/mw0521-dhmApita.jpg
