3.246

【婆訶】此云篅,(音垂),盛穀圓𥫱也,篅受二十斛。《俱舍》云:「頞部陀壽量,如一婆訶麻,百年除一,盡此言一篅。二十斛麻,百年之間,除去一升,除盡麻時,頞部壽滿也。」

【Vāha】Here translated as shuan (pronounced chui), a round bamboo bin for storing grain; a shuan holds twenty hu. The Abhidharmakośa states: 'The lifespan in Arbuda is like a vāha of sesame seeds from which one is removed every hundred years until it is exhausted; this is called one shuan. With twenty hu of sesame seeds, removing one sheng every hundred years, when all the sesame seeds are exhausted, the lifespan in Arbuda is fulfilled.'
