Master Ying says: 'This is translated as 'little'; properly rendered, it is xingyi. It comes from the country of Uḍḍiyāna, where the locals eat it regularly. The local tradition here that takes it to be yuntai (rapeseed/colza) is incorrect. This is tree sap resembling peach gum; people of the Western Regions gather it and place it in food. It is what is now called awei (asafetida).' Tripiṭaka Master Cimin says: 'Its root resembles a turnip; when pulled from the earth, it is pungent and foul-smelling. When Cimin arrived in that land in winter, he did not see its sprouts.' The Cang Jie pian says: 'Hun means pungent vegetables. Any foodstuff that is pungent and foul-smelling is called hun.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.256](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.256) - [Next: 3.258](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.258) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.3.257) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.257](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.257) · Pramāṇa
