玉豪 [yu hao]—Yùháo — [Metaphor] Also written as Yùháo (玉毫 [yu hao]). It refers to the urna (白毫相 [bai hao xiang]) of the Buddha. The character 豪 [hao] (háo) is a phonetic loan character for 毫 [hao] (háo). Huilin's Sounds and Meanings, Volume 11 (慧琳音義十一 [hui lin yin yi shi yi]) states: "Yùháo is a phonetic loan character (假借字 [jia jie zi]); the correct form is 毫 [hao], which is derived from the radical 毛 [mao]. Yùháo (玉毫 [yu hao]) refers to the white hair between the eyebrows of the Tathagata (如來 [ru lai]). It is brilliantly white and lustrous, like white jade (白玉 [bai yu]). From this urna mark, the Buddha emits great light, illuminating the worlds in the ten directions (十方界 [shi fang jie]); hence, it is called the auspicious jade-hair appearance (玉毫瑞色 [yu hao rui se])." Zhang Yue (張說 [zhang shuo]) states in his preface to the Records of the Western Regions (西域記 [xi yu ji]): "The jade-hair radiates light, and sweet dew (甘露 [gan lu]) sprinkles upon the great chiliocosm (大千 [da qian]). The golden mirror radiates brilliance, and a fragrant breeze extends to all that has boundaries."
玉豪—【譬喻】又作玉毫。佛之白毫相也。豪為毫之借字。慧琳音義十一曰：「玉豪，假借字也，正體從毛作毫。言玉毫者，如來眉間白毫毛也。皓白光潤，猶如白玉，佛從毫相，放大光明，照十方界，故云玉毫瑞色也。」西域記張說敘曰：「玉毫流照，甘露灑於大千。金鏡揚暉，薰風被於有截。」
