Foguang Dictionary of Buddhism (佛光大辭典) 　為僧家所用之椅子、坐床。又作曲木、曲錄、曲祿、曲■、曲木。蓋我國古代席地而坐，未嘗有椅，至漢末兩晉期間，隨胡人與中原之關系密切而傳入，時稱胡床。一般多為木制，有四腳，每兩腳交叉，並設有椅背，以其形狀屈曲，故稱為曲
。為胡床之俗稱，又稱圓椅、交椅、參椅。大明高僧傳卷六，有‘坐曲床’一語，可知曲亦被用為床之形容語；而‘坐曲床’一語亦于禪林中成為住持一山一寺、弘揚佛法之代用語。嘉泰普燈錄應庵曇華禪師章（d續一三七·一三九下）：‘二十年來坐曲木，懸羊頭，賣狗肉，知他有甚憑據？雖然，一年一度燒香日，千古令人恨轉深。’﹝雲門文偃禪師語錄卷上、禪林象器箋器物門﹞
