俱舍論疏 8.36

8.36

On the Śāstra's statement: "The realm belonging to desire ... like a diamond ring": this explains the names of the desire realm and the form realm. Just as pepper is in a drink, the pepper belongs to the drink. Just as there is a diamond on a ring, the diamond belongs to the ring. Thereby the drink is called "pepper[-drink]" and the ring is called "diamond[-ring]".
