jasmine
Māllikā,花名。末利又名摩利,末羅。譯言鬘,因其花可以造鬘,故名。勝鬘賓窟上本曰:「末利,亦云摩利,此是華名。有江南寺安法師,多所博識。云:此華色白而形小,此間無物以翻之,猶存末利之稱。」慧苑音義上曰:「末利者,花名也。其花黃金色,然非末利之言即翻為黃色。」
mallikā, 摩利; 末羅 (1) jasminum zambac, M. W., which suggests the 茉莉花, i. e. the Chinese jasmine; according to Eitel it is the narrowleaved nyctanthes (with globular berries 柰); the flower, now calledkastūrī(musk) because of its odour. By theFanyimingyi翻譯名義 it is styled the 鬘花 chaplet flower, as its flowers may be formed into a chaplet. (2) A concoction of various fruits mixed with water offered in worship.
末利 亦名摩利,此云柰,又云鬘華,堪作鬘故。善見律云:廣州有,其華藤生。此翻黃色華,華如黃金色。
