First, to explain the terms, one explanation says: "Ji" (稽) was written as 𮩡 in ancient script, and is distinguished today as 稽. The \*Baihu tong\* states: "𮩡 means to reach (至). Shou (首) means the head." It means the inferior prostrating to the superior, with the head reaching the ground. Furthermore, Zheng Xuan says: "Ji (稽) means to detain (稽). With the head reaching the ground, one detains it for a brief time." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.1.78) - [Next: 1.80](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.1.80) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832~en-mt.1.79) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.1.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1832.1.79) · Pramāṇa
