Yoga (school of philosophy)

(That which is) Long is denoted by the Sanskrit term Dīrgha (as opposed to Adīrgha—‘not long’), according to the Bṛhadāraṇyikopaniṣat 3.8.6.—Accordingly, while describing the absolute nature of Brahma: “Gārgi said, ‘Yājñavalkya, that which is above the sky, below the earth, between the two and called [past, present and future], is stitched and cross-stitched in what?’ Yājñavalkya said, ‘Gārgi, the Brahmins call that very [thing] the imperishable one. [e.g., It is not long (adīrgha) [...]’”.

龍 [long]—The (Lóng) (Dragon)—[a different kind of being] in Sanskrit (梵語 [fan yu]), Nāga (那伽 [na jia]), is long-bodied, legless, and the chief among the serpent species. It is one of the Eight Legions (八部眾 [ba bu zhong]). It possesses divine power (神力 [shen li]) and can transform into clouds and rain. The Mahāprajñāpāramitā-śāstra (智度論 [zhi du lun]) states: "Nāga, in Qin (Chinese) is called Lóng." The Sanskrit Miscellaneous Names (梵語雜名 [fan yu za ming]) says: "Lóng, its Sanskrit name is Nang-ga (曩誐 [nang e])." The Samantapāsādikā (善見論 [shan jian lun]), Chapter 17, states: "Lóng are long-bodied and legless." Ciyun's (慈雲 [ci yun]) Collection of Indian Studies (天竺別集 [tian zhu bie ji]), Volume 1, states: "A Celestial Dragon (天 [tian]) is merely a scaled creature (鱗蟲 [lin chong]); obtaining a single drop of water, it can scatter it through the six directions to form a great flood." Fuxing (輔行 [fu xing]), Volume 4, states: "A Lóng obtains a small amount of water to bring down heavy rain." Among the Five Unthinkables/Inconceivables (五不思議 [wu bu si yi]), there is the inconceivable nature of the Lóng. The Mahāmāyūrī Vidyārājñī Sūtra (孔雀王經 [kong que wang jing]), Mahāmēgha Sūtra (大雲經 [da yun jing]), and others, state that various Dragon Kings (王 [wang]) protect and uphold the Dharma (護持佛法 [hu chi fu fa]).

龍—【異類】梵語,那伽 Nāga,長身,無足,蛇屬之長也。八部眾之一。有神力。變化雲雨。智度論曰:「那伽,秦言龍。」梵語雜名曰:「龍,梵名曩誐。」善見論十七曰:「龍者長身無足。」慈雲之天竺別集上曰:「天龍一鱗蟲耳,得一渧之水,散六虛以為洪流。」輔行四曰:「龍得小水以降大雨。」五不思議之中有龍之不思議。孔雀王經,大雲經等說諸龍王之護持佛法。
