9.13

Luoyue (羅閱, fanqie 以拙 [y/zhuo]). According to the Scripture on King Ajātaśatru, it says 'Luoyueqi', which in the Jin language is 'City of the Royal Abode' (Rājagṛha); this must be corrupt. Correctly spoken it is Luoyue-jielixi (Rājagṛha). The meaning of luoyue is 'to judge and regulate'; replacing it with 'king' refers to the ability to judge and regulate the populace. Jielixi (gṛha) here means 'abode'. In general it is named Rājagṛha ('City of the Royal Abode'), which is the name of a city in the country of Magadha.
