舍利弗(具云奢唎補怛羅奢唎此云鶖鷺鳥補怛羅此云子也由此尊者母眼黑白分明轉動流利似鶖鷺眼故號奢利也尊者因母得名云鶖子也舊翻為身子者謬也梵本呼身為設利羅故知懸別)。
Śāriputra (In full, Śāriputra: śāri here means the "śāri bird [an egret/mynah]"; putra here means "son." Because this venerable one's mother had eyes with distinct black and white, turning and darting nimbly like the eyes of an egret, she was called Śāri; the venerable one took his name from his mother and is called "Son of the Egret." The older translation as "Son of the Body" is an error; the Sanskrit texts call "body" śarīra, so one knows they are completely distinct).
