[comments] Comment: I use this translation-equivalent because, although by extension the term means ""refute"" or ""contradict,"" I often find Sanskrit and Tibetan philosophical terminology to be far richer in its literal meaning than in its rerendering into what some English-speaking scholars have identified as its philosophical meaning. Much of the psychological punch (pun intended) is lost in such translations.
