1.166

問曰:純陀今為請住,直請便足,何勞慶前?欲使如來述後同前,故須慶前。

Question: Cunda is now requesting [the Buddha] to abide; a direct request would suffice, so why bother celebrating what preceded? [Answer:] He wishes to make the Tathāgata's subsequent confirmation accord with what preceded, so he must celebrate what preceded.
