Formerly calling it "words of the noble ones" was not like this. Among thirty-two kinds of speech, noble speech comprises sixteen; why must only the words of the Buddha be called noble speech? Because formerly noble designated characteristics, namely Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and so forth; now calling it supreme teaching makes no distinction of characteristics. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.67](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.8.67) - [Next: 8.69](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.8.69) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829~en-mt.8.68) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [瑜伽論記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.6.402) — Classical Chinese - [瑜伽師地論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.yogacara.yogacarabhumi*zh-xuanzang.25.80) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.8.68](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.8.68) · Pramāṇa
