27.167

Lands of the ten directions (十方剎): chuxia [fanqie]. The Qieyun writes 剎. Kṣetra means field, or soil and field; or it is translated by its sense as land. We note that the character 剎 is not found in character dictionaries; the Shuowen writes 㓼, which was abbreviated as 剎; 㓼 has the fanqie sound chuyi, meaning to wound; the character is formed from 桼, pronounced qi.
