23.91

師子頻申三昧（杜注左傳曰頻急申展也四體之拘急所以解於勞倦故曰頻申也表此三昧能申展自在無碍法界解脫障碍拘急勞倦故喻名耳此或全是梵言如刊定記也）。

Lion-stretch samādhi (師子頻申三昧: Du Yu's commentary on the Zuozhuan says: '頻申 means opening and stretching.' When the four limbs are cramped, it is the means to relieve fatigue; hence it is called yawning and stretching. This symbolizes that this samādhi can stretch freely within the unhindered Dharma realm, liberating beings from obstacles, cramping, and fatigue; hence the metaphoric name. Alternatively, it may be entirely Sanskrit, as noted in the Kanding ji).
