What 捨 means
Its core sense is letting something go.
The base character 捨 combines the hand component with 舍 as a sound clue. Japanese dictionaries also record Buddhist senses of almsgiving and a mind unshaken by emotion. This variant keeps the T6-4036 entry from Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992, plane 6, available for round-trip conversion.
Normalization maps 捨 to 捨. Unicode also registers 捨 UFE00 as a standardized sequence for the variant glyph; displaying it requires a supporting text system and font.
