The \*Dazhidulun\* translates it as a distant and secluded place; the \*Sarvāstivāda-śāstra\* translates it as a calm and quiet place. Tiantai states: Not engaging in worldly affairs is called calm (\*xian\*); being free from bustling noise is called quiet (\*jing\*). It is also translated as 'free from contention', meaning that where one dwells, one does not contend with the world, that is, a place five \*li\* away from villages. Sengzhao states: "Anger and contention arise among assemblies; freedom from contention emerges from empty seclusion. Therefore, the Buddha praised dwelling in an araṇya." Master Huanying translated it as empty and tranquil. Master Huiyuan divided it into three types: first, dharma-araṇya, that is, at the beginning of the \*Avataṃsaka\*, referring to the preaching that all dharmas are originally tranquil and calm, devoid of the sense of arising or action; second, mātaṅga-araṇya, referring to charnel grounds, which must be one krośa away from villages, beyond the reach of the bellowing of a large ox; third, daṇḍaka-araṇya, referring to a sandy desert. \*Qi\* (desert) is pronounced with the fanqie \*qian-li\*. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.7.8) - [Next: 7.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.7.10) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.7.9) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.7.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.7.9) · Pramāṇa
