5.14

Waking and sleeping (寤寐): The first character is read with the fanqie 吾 + 故. The Kaosheng says: 'To have seen something while sleeping, and upon awakening to speak of it with veracity.' The Cangjie pian also says: 'To awaken from sleep and have speech is called 寤.' The Shuowen says: 'It derives from an abbreviated 㝱 and from 爿 (pronounced like 牆), with 吾 providing the phonetic.' The second character is read with the fanqie 彌 + 庇. The Kaosheng says: '寐 means to sleep; to rest.' Gu Yewang says: '寐 means deep sleep.' The Shuowen says: 'It means to recline. It derives from 宀 (pronounced like 綿) and an abbreviated 㝱, with 未 providing the phonetic.' In some versions of the sūtra it is written with 穴 above as 𡩺寐, or with 小 (pronounced like 心) as 寤寐, or with [┴*├] (read with the fanqie 經 + 由) as 寤寐; none of these are standard character forms.
