4.178

妙翅(尸至反即金翅鳥也或名迦婁羅或名揭路茶皆梵語訛也正梵音云孽嚕拏經云妙翅者就狀貌而名之非敵對翻也)。

妙翅 (Wondrous wings: The fanqie 尸至 [chì]. That is, the golden-winged bird (garuḍa). It is also named jialouluo or jielucha, both being corrupt Sanskrit transcriptions; the correct Sanskrit pronunciation is garuḍa. When the sūtra speaks of 'Wondrous Wings', it names it by its appearance, not as a direct translation).
