2.6

[Dhṛtarāṣṭra] The Da zhidu lun says: 'In the language of Qin, this means "ruling the country"; he presides over the gandharvas and piśācas.' The Guangming shu says: 'The chief of the ascending ones, the first heaven of the lower realm, dwelling on the golden terrace in the east halfway up Mount Sumeru, the king is named Dhṛtarāṣṭra. This translates as "holding the country", or as "pacifying the people".'
