U+856F "蕯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+856F "蕯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in the context of Buddhist scriptures and transliterations, where it appears as part of the phonetic rendering of Sanskrit terms. Its traditional pronunciation in Mandarin is roughly "sà" or "sǎ," and its structure combines the grass radical (艹) with the phonetic component "para" or "sa" from its lower part, though it is not a commonly used character in modern standard Chinese writing. The character is most famously encountered in the Buddhist term "蕯婆訶" (sà pó hē), which corresponds to the Sanskrit "svāhā," an exclamation often used in mantras and rituals. Due to its specialized religious and historical usage, "蕯" is rarely seen outside of classical Buddhist texts or Unicode-based digital representations of such works.
