「又沙門瞿曇明解梵法，能為人說，亦與梵天往返語言，成此法者，我應詣彼，彼不應來。又沙門瞿曇明解三種祭祀、十六祀具，我等宿舊所不能知，成此法者，我應詣彼，彼不應來。又沙門瞿曇三十二相具足，成此法者，我應詣彼，彼不應來。又沙門瞿曇智慧通達，無有怯弱，成此法者，我應詣彼，彼不應來。彼瞿曇來至此佉㝹婆提村，於我為尊，又是貴客，宜往覲現。」

“Moreover, the ascetic Gautama clearly understands the teachings of Brahmā, he explains them for others, and he pays visits to Brahmā to speak with him. He has achieved such status, so we should go visit him; he shouldn’t come visit us.

“Moreover, the ascetic Gautama clearly understands the three types of ritual sacrifice and sixteen ritual requisites, but our previous generations and elders aren’t able to know them. He has achieved such status, so we should go visit him; he shouldn’t come visit us.

“Moreover, the ascetic Gautama is endowed with all thirty-two signs [of a great man]. He has achieved such status, so we should go visit him; he shouldn’t come visit us.

“Moreover, the ascetic Gautama is wise and insightful, and he isn’t timid. He has achieved such status, so we should go visit him; he shouldn’t come visit us.

“Moreover, the ascetic Gautama is here at [Khānumata] right now. He is a worthy to me. It would be an honor to be his guest and fitting to go have an audience with him.”
