84.47

Regarding the Commentary's phrase 'born when the room was empty': the physiognomist divined that this was an auspicious omen, so he was also named 'Good Fortune' (Subhūti) and also 'Born of Emptiness'; the meanings are identical. Foremost in understanding emptiness, he attained the samādhi of non-dispute; when someone made offerings to him, he would immediately bestow blessings upon them, hence he was called 'Good Fortune'.
