10.103

Son of the Autumn Egret (秋露子: in Sanskrit, *Śāriputra*; formerly called *Shelizi* or *Sheli-fuduo-luo*. Here translated as "Son of the Myna Bird". He was named after his mother: his mother's eyes resembled those of a myna bird, or the eyes of an autumn egret bird, so he was named after her. The old rendering "Body Son" [身子] is an error. "Body" is *śarīra*, which differs in vowel length from this *Śāri*, hence the error. When called *Upatiṣya*, that is after his father's name).
