Answer: Their names differ, but their meanings harmonize. Why? Proceeding from the path of true reality, his lineage is therefore called noble; because he is worthy of offerings, his rank is high; because of his universal knowledge, how could he not possess abundant wealth? Since he possesses both superknowledges and clarities, that is his majestic power; because he skillfully accords with the secret treasury, this is due to his profound wisdom; understanding the three worlds must depend upon venerable age; being the foremost among persons is due to the purity of his three karmas; yielding and subduing great persons concerns the completeness of propriety; and being a teacher of gods and humans, all Buddhas then praise him. As an elder of the world, he serves as the refuge for those below; therefore this single title also intrinsically possesses the nine virtues. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.46) - [Next: 4.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.48) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779~en-mt.4.47) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.47) · Pramāṇa
