2.198

That is, the doubt asks: "If the Buddhas acquire their name through unconditioned phenomena (asaṃskṛtadharmas), how is it that the Buddhas accomplish the eighty minor signs and thirty-two major marks and are named Buddhas?" The explanation says: this arises as a doubt regarding the earlier statement that the Tathāgata is the tathatā of all dharmas. Within this there are two: first, refuting the doubt arising regarding the physical body; next, refuting the doubt arising regarding the major marks and minor signs. Within the former there are again two: first, the Buddha asks; next, Subhūti answers. This is the first.
