Bursting and tearing (爆裂: the first character is pronounced 包 + 皃 [bào]. The Guangya says: '爆 is like scorching heat.' The Kaosheng says: 'The sound produced by burning firewood or bamboo.' The Shuowen says: 'It derives from 火 [fire] with 暴 as phonetic.' The second character is pronounced 連 + 哲 [liè]. The Guangya says: '裂 means parting.' Gu Yewang says: '裂 is like tearing and breaking.' The Shuowen says: 'It derives from 衣 [garment] with 列 as phonetic; sometimes written as 列.' In the sūtra text it is written with 力 [force] as 裂 [i.e., 厥 with 力, 劂/劐 variant]; this is [厂@((厥-厂)/力)], which means strong, and is not the intended meaning in the sūtra).
