21.49

In the Bodhimaṇḍa (Bodhi translates here as awakening. Regarding maṇḍa, the commentary on sounds and meanings in the *Hanshu* says: "Mounding earth to make it high is an altar; clearing the ground to make it flat is a field [*chang*]. These are both places where spiritual deities roam and abide." The character 場 written as 場 [with variant components] is erroneous).
