答曰:「如經中說,此諸外道,常隨世尊,不相捨離。然結集之家,簡取外德,故有異名。是外道者多,非者少。」
Answer: "As explained in the sūtras, these former non-Buddhists constantly followed the World-Honoured One, never separating from him. Yet the compilers singled out their external virtues, hence there are different names. Those who were non-Buddhists were many; those who were not were few."
