a furt ti (ktin) aāvritti denotes coming back, reversion, revolving,

occurence, repetition etc.
 

 
As a figure of speech AĀvṛtti occurs when word and meaning

both are repeated. In Diīpaka also such recurrence happens, so

Visśvanātha includes it under Diīpaka (Illumination). But Daṇḍin

recognises it as a separate figure of speech and refers to its three

varieties:
 

(i) repetition of word / words,
 

(ii)
 
repetition of meaning, and
 

(iii)
 
repetition of both word and meaning
 

 
It is otherwise called Āvṛtti-dīpaka and should be treated as a
variety of Avṛtti-dipaka and should be treated as a
 
variety of Alliteration.
 
lliteration.

शैले शैले न माणिक्यं / मौक्तिकं न गजे गजे।
 

साधवो न हि सर्वत्र / चन्दनं न वने वने ॥
 

 
Gems are not (to be found) in each and every mountain,

Ivory is not (to be found) in each and every elephant,
 

The pious are not (to be found) everywhere

Sandal in each and every forest is but rare.
