佛告阿難:「我初綰巾,汝名為結。此疊華巾先實一條,第二、第三云何汝曹復名為結?」阿難白佛言:「世尊!此寶疊華緝績成巾,雖本一體,如我思惟,如來一綰得一結名,若百綰成終名百結,何況此巾秖有六結,終不至七、亦不停五,云何如來秖許初時,第二、第三不名為結?」
The Buddha told Ānanda: "When I first tied the cloth, you called it a knot. This folded patterned cloth was originally a single piece; why do you and the others call the second and third ones knots as well?" Ānanda addressed the Buddha: "World-Honoured One, although this precious patterned cloth woven together was originally a single body, as I consider it, when the Tathāgata ties it once it receives the name of one knot, and if tied a hundred times it would ultimately be called a hundred knots. How much more so when this cloth has only six knots, neither reaching seven nor stopping at five! Why does the Tathāgata allow only the first to be called a knot, and not the second and third?"
