73.24

檀嚫(或言達嚫叉覲反此云財施報施之法名曰達嚫又案西域記云正云達𭣋拏或云駄器尼以用右手受他所施為其生福故從之立身也)。

"Dakṣiṇā (檀嚫)" (some say daxin, cha and jin in fanqie [chèn]; translated here as giving of wealth; the method of giving in return is named dakṣiṇā. Furthermore, according to the Xiyu ji, it is properly dakṣiṇā or dākiṇī; because one receives another's offering with the right hand [dakṣiṇa] to generate merit for them, it is named accordingly).
