𡝩冶 (The second character is pronounced 野. The Book of Changes states: "Seductive looks invite licentiousness." The Kaosheng states that it refers to a woman's seductive transformation. The Shuowen says 冶 also means to melt; it is formed from 冫 and 台 in both ancient and modern scripts. In the sūtra it is written with the insect radical as 蠱; though interchangeable, this is not the original meaning in the sūtra, nor is it the standard character at present).
