54.5

羇底 [Kṣatriya]: The upper character is [pronounced with the fanqie] 記 + 冝 [jī]; it is written with 冈 as 羇. The sūtra text removes 冈 and adds 革 and 奇 to form 䩭, which is not a proper character. The lower character 底 is erroneously written as the character 瘐, which is incorrect. 羇底 is Sanskrit, an alternative phonetic transcription of kṣatriya, the caste [of rulers and warriors].
