15.77

Falling prostrate (顛仆: the first character has the fanqie 下堅. Lexicons say: "顛 means to fall down." It takes 頁 with 真, or takes 人 as 傎; 傎 means to tumble over. In the sūtra it is written with two 真 as 㒹, an erroneous vulgar character. The second character has the fanqie 孚付, homophonous with the character 赴. The Kaosheng says: "Lying on the back; a stiff corpse." It takes 人 with 赴 abbreviated for phonetic value).
