"Like a tripod-stand (如拒)" (qi and lü in fanqie [jù]; this non-Buddhist water jar is round like a gourd and has no feet, so three sticks are crossed together to hold the jar up. In various sūtras it is written either as 'three sticks standing as a tripod' or 'a trident standing as a tripod', both of which are this).
