55.54

Kangkai (impassioned and indignant) (the first character has the fanqie: 康 + 朗 [kāng]; the second character has the fanqie: 開 + 改 [kǎi]; the *Kaosheng* states: 'Kangkai means the spirit is unsettled with indignation; it also means grieved sighing.' Wang Yi's commentary to the *Chuci* states: 'Kangkai means deeply felt resentment and indignation cutting into the heart.' The *Shuowen* states: 'The two characters *kang* and *kai* both take 心 as semantic classifier, with 康 and 既 respectively as phonetics.' The sūtra writes them with 气 as 忱愾, which are commonly interchangeable popular variants).
