暫瞚 (The first character has the fanqie *can* + *lan* [zàn]. Jia Kui's commentary on the *Guoyu* states: "*Zàn* means sudden." The *Shuowen* states: "*Zàn* means not lasting long. Formed with *ri* (sun) and has *zhan* phonetic." The second character has the fanqie *shu* + *run* [shùn]. The *Zhuangzi* states: "Looking all day without the eyes blinking (*shùn*)." The *Lüshi chunqiu* states: "Ten thousand generations are still like a single blink (*shùn*)." The *Shuowen* writes it as 瞚 and states: "The opening and closing of eye movement. Formed with *mu* (eye) and has *yin* phonetic." Sūtra editions write it as 瞬, which is the vulgar character in use).
