Because the arising of arising, the arising of non-arising, the non-arising arising, and the non-arising non-arising are ineffable, it is called 'noble silence'; hence the Buddha answered Mañjuśrī: 'The Tathāgata ultimately does not turn the wheel of Dharma.' Not turning the wheel of Dharma is precisely noble silence. - [Previous: 1.142](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.1.142) - [Next: 1.144](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.1.144) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.1) ## Linked texts (1) - [維摩經玄疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.1.143) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.1.143](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.1.143) · Pramāṇa
