32.177

得旋 ('obtaining revolving'; the character is pronounced 隨 [suí] + 緣 [yuán] fanqie. Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: '周旋 [zhōuxuán] means to pursue and follow one another.' Wang's commentary on the Chu ci says: '旋 [xuán] means to revolve/turn around.' The Shuowen has it composed of 㫃 with 疋 as phonetic. 㫃 is pronounced 偃 [yǎn]. In the sūtra text, writing it with 手 ['hand'] as 𢭀 is an error).
