招提(譯云四方也招此云四提此云方謂四方僧也一云招提者訛也正言柘鬪提奢此云四方譯人去鬪去奢柘復誤作招以柘招相似遂有斯誤也)。

招提 (Translated as 'four directions'. Zhāo means four, and tí means directions, referring to the Saṅgha of the Four Quarters. Another view says zhāotí is corrupt; the correct form is cāturdiśa, meaning four directions. The translators omitted tu and she, and cha was further miswritten as zhao due to their visual resemblance, thus causing this error).
