40.21

攢捻 ('gathering and rolling [the beads]'; the first character has the fanqie 徂 [cu] + 丸 [wan]; the Gujin zhengzi says: '攢 [cuan] means to cluster; it refers to clustering the five fingers to roll beads'; it is formed from 木 with 贊 as phonetic; the sūtra writing it with 手 as 攢 and pronounced 讚 [zan] is incorrect; the second character has the fanqie 寧 [ning] + 牒 [die]).
