The *Yiqiejing Yinyi* was compiled by the eminent Tang dynasty monk Huilin during the Zhenyuan to Yuanhe reign periods. This work represents the culmination of studies on the pronunciation and meaning of Buddhist scriptures, systematically incorporating and expanding upon the content of earlier scholars such as Xuanying and Huiyuan. It provides detailed phonetic notations and exegesis for difficult characters, variant readings, and lexical meanings found within the sutras. Comprising one hundred volumes in total, it covers one thousand three hundred Buddhist texts, possessing significant value in philology, phonology, and critical interpretation of ancient texts. As the largest and most influential work of its kind in Chinese Buddhist history, it serves not only as an essential tool for interpreting Chinese-translated Buddhist scriptures but also provides authoritative material for the study of Medieval Chinese. It holds an esteemed position in the fields of Buddhist textual scholarship and linguistics.


高宗皇帝在春宮述三藏記(即大帝也)

Emperor Gaozong, while Crown Prince, Composed a Record on the Tripitaka (This refers to Emperor Taizong's successor)

崇闡(上床隆反鄭箋毛詩云崇序也賈注國語云敬也鄭注禮記云尊也說文高也從山宗聲也或作崈下昌演反韓康伯注繫辭云闡明也廣雅闢也聲類大開也說文從門單聲也)。

Exalt((Shàng) means to raise high, to venerate, or to revere. (Chǎn) means to open wide, to illumine, or to expound clearly.).

軌䠱(上居洧反賈逵注國語軌法也廣雅跡也說文車轍也從車從宄省聲也宄音鬼下重綠反漢書音義云䠱跡也說文蹢䠱也從足屬聲也或作躅略也)。

Tracks and footprints (The character "軌" (gui) has the fanqie reading "上居洧反". Jia Kui's commentary on the Guoyu explains: "軌" means "law" or "rule". The Guangya defines it as "traces" or "marks". The Shuowen explains: "軌" refers to "wheel ruts", formed from the radical "車" (chariot) and the abbreviated sound of "宄" (gui) under it. "宄" is pronounced as "鬼" (gui). As for the character "䠱" (zhu), its fanqie is "下重綠反". The Hanshu Yinyi states: "䠱" means "footprints". The Shuowen explains: "蹢䠱" (zhu) is "a footprint path". The radical is "足" (foot), and the sound component is "屬" (shu). It is sometimes written as "躅" (zhu), meaning "tracks" or "steps". )

綜括(宗宋反桂苑珠藂云機上織具也綜理絲縷使不相亂者名綜說文機縷也從糸宗聲下宦活反韓康伯注易云括結也韓詩束也考聲撿也說文潔也從手舌聲也)。

Summary and organization.

宏遠(獲萠反爾雅宏大也鄭注禮記寬也說文屋深響也從宀厷聲宀音綿厷音國弘反)。

Vast and far-reaching.

祕扃(悲媚反鄭箋毛詩云祕神也廣雅勞也韻英密也說文從示必聲也示音祇下癸營反顧野王云戶扇上䥫釰也所用於外以關閉門戶也說文外閉之關也從戶冋聲經從向作扃誤也)。

祕密之門扉。

遂古(隨類反鄭箋詩曰遂久也國語信也從也廣雅往也說文亡也會意也從辵㒸聲也㒸音同)。

In ancient times(According to the ancient commentary, "sui" (遂) here means "long ago" or "distant past," as explained in various classical texts such as the "Shijing" (Book of Songs) and "Guoyu" (Discourses of the States), while also carrying the sense of "following" or "trusting." The character "su" (古) signifies the past or antiquity.).

排空(敗埋反顧野王云排抵也廣雅推也說文擠也從手非聲也)。

Insects(The term "insect" refers to all small creatures. Anciently, it was written with a borrowed character. The standard form is "䖵," and in phonetic classifications it appears as "蜫." According to Zheng Xuan's commentary on the Rites, "kun" means "multitude," as insects emerge with yang energy in warmth and hide with yin energy in cold. The Xia Xiaozheng states that "kun" signifies "many," referring to small creatures. The Shuowen Jiezi defines it as a general term, composed of two "insect" radicals. Its ancient pronunciation is traced to the character "逐融." The Erya distinguishes that creatures with feet are called "insects," while those without feet are called "zhi." The Shuowen also notes a variant written with three "insect" radicals, and in folk usage, the character "虫" was adopted for the combined form, while "豸" is pronounced as "chi-li.").

阿耨達(奴祿反正梵音云阿那婆達多。唐云無熱惱池。此池在五印度北大雪山北香山南二山中間有此龍池。謹案起世因本經及立世阿毘曇論。皆云大雪山北有此大池。縱廣五十踰繕那計而方一千五百里。於池四面出四大河。皆共旋流遶池一匝流入四海。東面出者名私多河。古譯名斯陀河。南面者名兢伽河。古名恒河。西面出者名信度河。古名辛頭河。北而出者名縛蒭河。古名博叉河。此國黃河即東面私多河之末也。此方言無熱惱者。龍王福德之稱也。一切諸龍皆受熱砂等苦。此池龍王獨無此苦。故以為名也)。

懇誠(康佷反廣雅懇信也誠也集訓美也從心貇聲也貇音上同)。
齠齔(上亭遙反俗字也正體從髟作髫埤蒼髫髦也考聲云小兒剃髮留兩邊胎髮曰髫從髟召聲下初覲反說文毀齒也男八月齒生八歲而齔女七月齒生七歲而齔從齒匕聲經從乙訛也髦音毛髟音必姚反剃音天計反)。
