The Erya says: 'Dim.' The Qieyun says: 'Dark; night.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'The moon begins to grow dark from the sixteenth day, hence the character is composed of 六, 日, and 冖, with 冖 pronounced \*mi\* as phonetic; it also has the shape of covering.' In the sūtra it is written with the water radical 水 as 溟, which means the appearance of a light drizzle, or an ocean, not darkness. There is also a form composed of 宀 and 具 as 𡨋, which is not the standard character; 宀 is pronounced fanqie 莫仙). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.126](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129.6.126) - [Next: 6.128](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129.6.128) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129~en-mt.6.127) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129.6.127](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2129.6.127) · Pramāṇa
