7.76

Answer: In the Vibhāṣā this explanation is given. The Buddha in the Deer Park, with a single Brahmā voice, expounded the four truths: the five people heard human language expounding the four truths, the eighty thousand devas heard divine language expounding the four truths, and the earth yakṣas heard yakṣa language expounding the four truths, and so proclaimed it, and in this manner it was heard transmitted in turn up to the Brahmā world. Hence we know the single voice primarily refers to the Brahmā voice.
