Nose Odor Olfactory Consciousness
Next is a triad related to smelling. sna is nose, the 'i is a genitive particle that binds khams, element to the nose, so we have the nose element (in Sanskrit ghrana-dhatu.)
dri is smell, or odor, so this is the odor element (gandha-dhatu.)
sna'i rnam par shes pa is the olfactory consciousness, so with khams this is the olfactory consciousness element (ghrana-vijnana-dhatu.)
Isn't this an interesting way to learn Tibetan words about various body parts and senses?
