Analysis. maha + phala: 'great' (maha-) + 'fruit, result' (phala); describes an action, practice, or teaching bearing significant karmic or spiritual fruit.

Etymology. maha from Sanskrit mahā, Indo-European *meg- 'great' (cognate with English 'much', Latin 'magnus'); phala from Sanskrit phala, probably related to Proto-Dravidian (loanword into Indo-European languages of the subcontinent). In Buddhist doctrine, 'fruit' (phala) denotes the results of practice—the four fruits of the path (ariyaphalā) and the fruits of meditation (jhānaphala).
