21.91

Virūpākṣa (毘樓博叉: the complete form is Virūpākṣa [髀路波呵迄叉]. 'Vi' means diverse; 'rūpa' means form; 'akṣa' means sense-faculties, meaning that his sense-faculties are adorned with diverse variegated colors. Another explanation says: 'vi' means diverse; 'rūpa' means form; 'akṣa' means eyes, meaning his eyes are adorned with diverse colors. The older translation as 'Ugly-Eyed' [醜目] is an error).
