佛遺教經論疏節要 1.22

1.22

〔補註〕問：諸經結集俱云如是我聞，為斷三疑。此何不爾？答：首稱釋迦牟尼佛，佛不自稱則非佛重起，一疑斷；言釋迦則非他方佛來，二疑斷；言釋迦則非阿難成佛，三疑斷。蓋變格而合常者也。

[Supplementary note] Question: The compilation of various sūtras all say "Thus have I heard" in order to sever three doubts. Why is this not so here? Answer: First naming "Śākyamuni Buddha": the Buddha does not name himself, so it is not the Buddha rising again—the first doubt is severed; stating "Śākya", it is not a Buddha from another realm who has arrived—the second doubt is severed; stating "Śākya", it is not Ānanda attaining buddhahood—the third doubt is severed. This is an instance of altering the conventional form yet conforming to the standard.
