The \*Kaosheng\* says: "To burn lightly." The character dictionaries say: "A courtyard torch is called 燎." The \*Shuowen\* says: "To set fire to; it takes the fire radical with 尞 (\*liào\*, 力召反 \[leuᴴ\]) as its phonetic. The orthodox form of the character 尞 takes fire and 昚, written as 𤊽; 昚 is the ancient character for 慎 (careful/reverent). Burning firewood to sacrifice to Heaven was the pinnacle of reverence and caution, which is why it takes 昚 and 火." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.181](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.181) - [Next: 12.183](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.183) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.12.182) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.182](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.182) · Pramāṇa
