Ājímó (āgama) (the middle character has the fanqie qí + liè; also called āhánmù or āhán, which are all Sanskrit variants of light and heavy pronunciation. Here it translates as "treasury" or "transmission", referring to the Buddha's secret treasury handed down and practiced across generations; or translated as "teaching", namely the four kinds of Āgamas: Dīrgha, Madhyama, Saṃyukta, and Ekottarika).
