罽賓（上居又反西域國名或云个溼蜜羅亦云迦葉彌羅皆梵言訛轉也正云羯溼弭羅此翻為阿誰入謂此國未建都時有大龍池人莫敢近也有一羅漢見地形勢宜人居止從龍乞容一膝地時龍許之羅漢變身漸大膝滿龍池龍以言信捨之而去羅漢復以神力乾竭其水遂建城郭眾人咸言我等不因聖師阿誰敢入因有此語乃立國名）。

> Jibin 罽賓 (The upper character is the fanqie ju + you; the name of a country in the Western Regions. Sometimes called Geshimiluoge or Jiayemiluo, these are all phonetic corruptions of the Sanskrit. The correct form is Kaśmīra. This is translated as 'Who Enters?'. When this country had not yet established its capital, there was a great dragon pond which people dared not approach. An arhat, observing that the terrain was suitable for human habitation, begged the dragon for a plot of land that could accommodate one knee. At that time, the dragon granted it. The arhat gradually enlarged his body until his knee filled the dragon pond. The dragon, bound by his word, abandoned it and departed. The arhat then used his supernormal power to dry up its waters, and thereupon built city walls. The populace all said: 'Were it not for the holy master, who would dare enter?' Because of these words, it was established as the name of the country.).
