搵蘇 (The upper character is 烏 + 困 [wèn]; the Qieyun says it means to press down; the Fangyan says: "Wèn means immersing an object into water"; 抐 is pronounced 奴 + 困 [nèn]; the lower character is 素 + 姑 [sū]; perilla herb; upon examination of the sūtra, the characters 搵蘇 should properly be 搵酥; the Qieyun says sū is clarified butter / curd).
