56.21

Yanmian (掩面; the two fanqie pronunciations are *yu-yan* [yǎn] and *wu-gan* [ǎn]. Guangya: “Yan (掩) means to cover; it also means to conceal.” In the sūtra text it is written as 唵, *yi-gan* fanqie [ǎn]; an means to gobble. Picang: “An (唵) means to put in mouth (ha), referring to eating from the palm.” An is not the meaning here).
