迦嚕羅(中離古反或云迦婁羅亦云揭路茶正云𭒯嚕䋈此云妙翅亦云金翅亦名龍冤案起世經云金翅鳥與龍各具四生卵生金翅鳥只食卵生龍以力小故乃至化生金翅鳥具食四生龍以威力大故餘二生准知)。

Garuḍa 迦嚕羅 (The middle character is the fanqie li + gu; also called Jialouluo or Jielucha; the correct form is Garuḍa. This translates as 'wondrous wings', also 'golden wings', or 'the dragon's enemy'. Examining the Qishi jing: the golden-winged bird and the dragon each possess four modes of birth. An egg-born golden-winged bird feeds only on egg-born dragons because its strength is small, up to an apparitionally born golden-winged bird which feeds on dragons of all four modes of birth because its majestic strength is great; the other two modes of birth may be inferred accordingly.).
