The \*Guangya\* states: '險 (\*xian\*) means obstructed.' The \*Fangyan\* states: '險 means high.' Jia Kui's commentary on the \*Guoyu\* states: '險 means dangerous.' Wang Bi's commentary on the \*Zhouyi\* states: '險 means difficult.' The \*Shuowen\* states: '險 means obstructed and difficult.' It has the mound radical (阝, pronounced \*fu\*) and 僉 (pronounced \*qi\* + \*jian\*) as phonetic. Sūtra texts written with the mountain radical as 嶮, pronounced \*yan\*, are incorrect. 嶮 means a slight unevenness, a pit; both its meaning and pronunciation diverge. In accord with the sūtra’s meaning, it should be changed to the mound radical as 險. The lower character has the fanqie \*ku\* + \*bang\*. The \*Kaosheng\* states: '壙埌 (\*kuanglang\*) \[pronounced \*lang\*\] describes the appearance of distant wild plains.' The \*Cang Jie pian\* states: '壙 means expansive and empty.' The \*Guangya\* states: '壙 means vast.' The \*Shuowen\* states: 'A trench,' pronounced \*qi\* + \*yan\*; 'a pit.' It has the earth radical (土) and 廣 as phonetic. Sūtra texts written with the sun radical as 曠 are mistaken; 曠 means bright and clear, which diverges completely from the sūtra's meaning. Writing it with the earth radical is standard. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 11.111](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.11.111) - [Next: 11.113](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.11.113) - [Up: 11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.11) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.11.112) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.11.112](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.11.112) · Pramāṇa
