迦蘭多迦(上下皆薑佉反舊云迦蘭陀或云迦闌鐸迦皆梵音訛轉也正云羯嬾馱迦此譯云好聲鳥謂王舍城側有大竹林此鳥多棲此大林中因以為名即說此理趣般若處也)。

Kalandaka 迦蘭多迦 (The upper and lower characters are both the fanqie jiang + qia; formerly rendered Kalanduo or Galanduojia, both being phonetic corruptions of the Sanskrit. The correct form is Kalandaka. This is translated as 'the bird of pleasant sound'. Near the city of Rājagṛha there was a great bamboo grove, and this bird frequently nested in this great grove, whence the grove took its name. It is the place where this Naya-prajñāpāramitā was expounded.).
