77.11

Regarding the Commentary's statement 'This translates as Much Reflection': the Vibhāṣā also calls it Zhina (Cīna), which translates here as Han. The Record of the Western Regions states, 'Great Han is fully called Mahācīna. Therefore, Tripiṭaka Master Paramārtha translated it as clothing and caps.' The intention is that it is a land of refined dress and cultured people. These are all translations by meaning; the translation in the Commentary is the correct one.
