Rfv-sense: "passion, love, lust; in Buddhist mythology a demon". Ƿidsiþ 16:38, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

In most cases with this meaning, I find it italicized with diacritical marks - in other words, clearly not considered English. Especially when referring to the demon, where it is also capitalized as a proper noun. I did find enough cites without diacritical marks, italics, or scare quotes, for the "passion, love, lust" sense, so it is cited, but I would take out the demon.
