{/Be-ro-tsa-na/ (Vairotsana) is a Bodish word for the '"kacimbhala tree'', a kind of oak.

The name /vai-roṣaṇa/ would derive from Sanskrit /vi-roṣa/ 'free from anger'. The word /kacimbhala/ [not in Monier-Williams] may perhaps represent /kācima/ 'sacred tree' + /bhallātaka/ 'acajou, cashew-nut, marking-nut'. }
