The lower character is pronounced ge2 \[gan-la fan\]. The Lüshi chunqiu says: 'Clams and oysters are yin creatures. When the moon is full, clams and oysters are full; when the moon is dark, clams and oysters are empty: they resonate with each other.' The Shuowen jiezi writes 𧊧, and there are three types, all born in the sea: the oyster of a thousand years transformed from a sparrow, which Qin calls the male oyster; the sea-clam transformed from a hundred-year-old swallow; and the kui clam, another name for the conch, transformed from an old bat. Formed from 'insect' (虫) with 合 as phonetic. The sūtra text writes 蛤, which is the same). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 14.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.14.89) - [Next: 14.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.14.91) - [Up: 14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.14) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.14.90) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.14.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.14.90) · Pramāṇa
