75.136

Skinning and flaying (皮剝) (fanqie: 被碑 [pí]. The Kaosheng says: "皮 also means to peel off." The sūtra text takes the knife radical [刀] to make 㓟, which is a popular form. Lower: fanqie 邦角 [bō]; the Xia Xiaozheng says: "剝 means to shave off." The Shuowen says: "To carve; analyzed from knife [刀] with lu [彔] as the phonetic.")
