15.115

Beg (乞匃; *gē* + *ài* fanqie. The *Yunying* states: "*Gài* also means to beg." The *Shuowen jiezi* states: "The top takes *rén* (person), the bottom takes *wáng* (loss). When a person loses wealth and goods, then they beg." The sūtra text writes it as *kě* 可, which is incorrect. *Gài* 丐 is pronounced *mián* + *diǎn* fanqie, which deviates from the meaning of the sūtra).
