【尸棄】《大論》云:「秦言火,或翻火首。」《法華疏》云:「外國喚火為樹提尸棄。此王本修火定,破欲界惑,從德立名。」又云:「經標梵王,復舉尸棄,似如兩人。依《大論》,正以尸棄為王,今舉位顯名,恐目一人耳。」肇曰:「尸棄,梵王名,秦言頂髻。」
【Śikhin】 The *Dàzhìdù lùn* says: "In the language of Qin, it means 'Fire', or is translated as 'Fire Crest' (Huoshou)." The *Fǎhuá shū* says: "Foreign countries call fire *jyotiḥ-śikhin*. This king originally cultivated the fire samādhi to break through the delusions of the desire realm, establishing his name after his virtue." It also says: "The sūtra notes the Brahma King and then mentions Śikhin, seemingly as if they were two persons. According to the *Dàzhìdù lùn*, it is precisely Śikhin who is the king; here, presenting his title to make his name evident, it probably refers to one person." Sengzhao says: "Śikhin is the name of a Brahma King, in the language of Qin meaning 'topknot' (dingji)."
