抽擲（上勅鳩反韻譜云拔也切韻引也去也或作紬音同說文從手由聲下直炙反古文作擿玉篇投也切韻振也案抽擲二字即大樂金剛薩埵以左拳安𭦫側右手執金剛杵擲弄作密印法也）。

Drawing and twirling (抽擲: the first character has the fanqie *ch- / j-*, the Yunpu states: "To pull out"; the Qieyun states: "To draw out; to remove"; it is also written as 紬 with the same sound; the Shuowen says: "Derived from shou 手 with you 由 as phonetic"; the second character has the fanqie *zh- / zh-*, in ancient script written as 擿; the Yupian says: "To cast"; the Qieyun says: "To brandish"; checking the two characters 'drawing and twirling' (chouzhi 抽擲), they refer to the Great Bliss Vajrasattva placing his left fist beside the hip and wielding the vajra pestle with his right hand, twirling and brandishing it to perform the esoteric mudrā method).
