In ancient times it was called luóshà (羅剎), which is erroneous. The character luó (羅) should be pronounced in the rising tone together with a trilled tongue and a lengthened sound to be correct. This is the name of a violent and evil demon. The males are extremely ugly, while the females are exceedingly beautiful; both devour human flesh. There is separately a Kingdom of Rākṣasīs located on an island in the ocean, as fully explained in the Fo benxing jing (Abhiniṣkramaṇa-sūtra). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.145](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.7.145) - [Next: 7.147](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.7.147) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.7.146) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.7.146](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.7.146) · Pramāṇa
