「是時長老阿難，一心合掌向佛涅槃方，如是說言：『佛初說法時，爾時我不見，如是展轉聞。佛在波羅柰，佛為五比丘，初開甘露門，說四聖諦法，苦集滅道諦。阿若憍陳如，最初得見道，及八萬諸天，聞是得見道。』」以是等文，明是傳聞，故云或展轉傳聞。

> “At that time the Elder Ānanda, single-mindedly joining his palms toward the direction of the Buddha's nirvāṇa, spoke thus: ‘When the Buddha first preached the Dharma, at that time I did not see it; I heard it thus through transmission. When the Buddha was in Vārāṇasī, for the five bhikṣus the Buddha first opened the gate of ambrosia and taught the Dharma of the four noble truths: the truths of suffering, origination, cessation, and path. Ājñātakauṇḍinya first attained the vision of the path, and eighty thousand devas, hearing this, attained the vision of the path.’” Through passages such as these, it is clear that this was transmitted hearing, hence it says “or heard through transmission.”
