Richard,

There are several entries in MW that one can argue beg the question, such as

boddhavya - mfn. to be enlightened or admonished or instructed or informed , 
one who is informed , Pañcat. Sāh

bodhi - mf. (with Buddhists or Jainas) perfect knowledge or wisdom (by which 
a man becomes a Buddha or Jina) , the illuminated or enlightened intellect 
(of a Buddha or Jina) Kathās. Rājat. Śatr. Lalit. (cf. MWB. 97 , 188 &c.)

bodhin - mfn. awakening , enlightening (cf. jJAna- , tattva- , bAla-bodhinI)


But how about

bodhisaMcodiNI bodhi--saMcodiNI - f. N. of a partic. ray of light Lalit. 
734,3

Anyone have a copy of lalita vistara around to check the reference?
