Ācārya (ajieli 阿闍梨; in sūtras sometimes written aqili 阿祇利, which are all corruptions from Khotan and other countries. It should properly be ācārya [阿遮利夜], translated as 'correct conduct'; also called ācārya [阿遮利邪], translated here as 'model of conduct'. The old [translation] says: 'One who instructs and brings about knowledge in wholesome dharmas is called an ācārya').
