The treatise calls this the cause of visibly seen supreme excellence, because the buddhas and bodhisattvas themselves manifest and partake of supreme names, clans, and so forth; thus it is called supreme excellence. In the text there are four excellences, of which two are here: first, the excellence of having the same name; second, the excellence of having the same clan. "Bhāradvāja" is one of the eighteen clans among the brahmins. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.241](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.2.241) - [Next: 2.243](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.2.243) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723~en-mt.2.242) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.2.242](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.2.242) · Pramāṇa
