管毒木 [guan du mu]—(Guǎndúmù) — [Object Name] One of the objects held by 常瞿梨童女 [chang qu li tong nu] (Chángqúlí Tóngnǚ). As stated in the 常瞿梨毒女經 [chang qu li du nu jing] (Chángqúlí Dúnǚ Jīng): "Holds the Guandumu implement in her left hand." This is it. This wood is sometimes said to be a four-cornered piece of wood, or a tube made from poisonous wood, or it is said not to be a single type of wood, but rather a bundle of various poisonous woods. The third explanation seems to be the most fitting. Indeed, as 常瞿梨 [chang qu li] uses various poisonous snakes as garlands and various insects, pythons, and snakes as companions, and to prevent poisonous dragons and snakes from harming sentient beings, it is appropriate for her to hold such a wooden implement.
管毒木—【物名】常瞿梨童女所持物之一。常瞿梨毒女經所謂：「左手把管毒木印。」是也。此木或謂是四角之木，或謂以毒木作管，或謂非一木名，乃束諸毒木為之，丙說似當。蓋常瞿梨以諸毒蛇為瓔珞，諸蟲蟒蛇類為伴戲，不使諸毒龍蛇侵害眾生，故應持如此木具也。
