ba glang gi spos

A type of sandalwood that is reddish in color and has medicinal properties. It is said to have the finest fragrance of all sandalwood. In the Mahāvyutpatti it is translated as {sa mchog}, which means "supreme earth." Later translations translate gośirṣa literally as "ox-head," which is said to refer to the shape or name of the mountain where it grows. Appears to be red sandalwood, though that appears separately in the list of incenses.
