In Sanskrit kṣetra, translated here as "land" or "fields". In the sūtras, when it says "country" or "land", the meaning is the same. When written "kṣetra-land" \[剎土\], both phonetic and semantic elements are preserved. Likewise, kṣatriya, meaning "master who protects the fields", is also this. Note that in standard script there was no character 剎; it is an abbreviation of the character \[利-禾+(暴-(日/共)+夾)\], pronounced cha \[chu + yi fan\]. Calling a stūpa a 剎 is an error; it should be said as yaṣṭi \[剌瑟胝\], 剌 pronounced la \[li + ge fan\], translated here as pole. People substituted a pillar for it, calling it a stūpa-pole \[剎柱\]. Because it is used to house the Buddha's relics, its meaning corresponds to land; hence it is called 剎, for in the Western Regions relics are placed at the top of the stūpa's pole). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 20.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.149) - [Next: 20.151](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.151) - [Up: 20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.20.150) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.150](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.150) · Pramāṇa
