4.282

Flaws and fissures [瑕隙] (the upper character is hu + jia fan [xia]. Zheng's commentary on the Book of Rites says: 'Xia is a flaw in jade.' The Guangya says: 'Xia means cracked.' The Yupian says: 'Xia means defilement.' The lower character is xiang + ni fan [xi]. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A hole in the juncture of a wall. Xi takes the 'mound' radical (fù) and 'white' with small above and below; fù is pronounced fu.' In the sūtra it is written with 'nest', which is incorrect. Already explained in the fortieth fascicle of the previous sūtra.)
