Such water is referred to in ancient Indian
texts as "Visodaka" meaning poisonous water, an account
of which we have given on previous pages. If the word
"udaka" for water in Sanskrit is translated to the
Chinese "Shui" for water and the remaining "Pan莽a-visa" is
transliterated into Chinese as "Ban cha zhuo" we get the
word "Ban cha zhuo shui" which is parallel to "Visodaka"
or poisonour water.
It is interesting to note that the ninth century
Chinese-Sanskrit-Tibetan dictionary gives a Chinese word
"23
for "Visoda" (also poisonous water) as "Wei so dan'
which is the transliteration of the original word. We
have seen in the case of Navasara or Nao sha, that the
writers freely chose different characters for translitera-
tion, in different periods.
The physical and chemical properties of Visodaka
resemble those of Ban cha zhuo shui of the Chinese text,
as
can be seen below:
