After they exchanged greetings, he sat to one side. That naked Kāśyapa said to the Buddha, “I hear that the ascetic Gautama criticizes all ritual practices and rebukes other ascetics, considering them corrupt. Gautama, suppose someone said, ‘The ascetic Gautama criticizes all the ritual practices and rebukes other ascetics, considering them corrupt.’ If someone says this is Dharma speech that accomplishes the teachings, would they not be slandering the ascetic Gautama?” > — Charles Patton, The Long Discourses (selected sūtras) - [Previous: 25.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas.25.3) - [Next: 25.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas.25.5) - [Up: 25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas.25) ## Translations (2) - [The Long Discourses (selected sūtras)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas~en-patton.25.p2) — Charles Patton, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas~en-mt.25.4) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Mahāsīhanādasutta](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.digha.8.1.1-4) — Pāli --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas.25.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.dirghagama*zh-buddhayasas.25.4) · Pramāṇa
