Definition[1]

圍遶 [py] wéi rào [wg] wei-jao [ko] 위요 uiyo [ja] ニョウ ninyō ||| (1) To circumambulate (the Buddha three times) with one's right shoulder facing in. Also written 圍繞. (2) To encircle, enclose.

Definition[2]

又作圍繞。包圍環繞之意。即繞右旋而敬禮,一般多指右繞三匝。據賢愚因緣經卷九載,佛世時,須達長者不知禮拜供養佛陀之法,首陀會天遂化為人身,教示右繞三匝之禮。蓋右旋本為印度表示敬意之禮法,經典中常有「繞佛三匝」、「右繞三匝」等語。其法施禮者先對佛或塔廟禮拜,而後自左向右旋繞,或繞一周,或繞三周不等。法會中之行道儀式即本乎此。〔法華經分別功德品、法華文句卷二下、南海寄歸內法傳卷三旋右觀時〕(參閱「行道」2563)
