三藐三佛陀(藐本音莫角反為就梵語借音彌藥反正云三藐三沒駄三字去聲此云正等覺亦云正遍知即第三号也)。

Samyak-saṃbuddha (Sanmiaosanfotuo 三藐三佛陀: the original pronunciation of miao has the fanqie [reading] mo + jiao [miao]; to approximate the Sanskrit sound, it borrows the pronunciation mi + yao [fan] [miao]. Correctly it is samyak-saṃbuddha, all three characters in the falling tone, translated here as Correct and Equal Enlightenment, and also called Correct and Universal Knowledge. This is the third epithet).
