(Thongd?Suratejo) in his book named Dictionary for Buddhist Studies: Analytical Terminologies, he
defined it has been originated and translated from the Pali term “Tulaya” which can also translated as
match or equal(PhraDhammakittiva?sa (Thongd?Suratejo), 2550 BE, p. 299) This is so true when the
Buddha mentions this word in the connected discourses of the Buddha, the Sa?yuttanik?yaNid?naVagga:
“natthik?yasmi?tulayat?”.
