12.46

The śāstra states: "Furthermore, there are four kinds of dharmoddāna"—this means 'saying', that is, what the World-Honoured One constantly recited and spoke. If this uddāna means 'subsuming the scattered', it subsumes the prose discourses by means of brief verses. Here it says 'saying', referring to constant recitation and speaking; this meaning seems to be an *udāna* (unsolicited discourse). As for the intrinsic nature of these four kinds, when extracting the truths by the substantial nature of phenomena, they are conditioned and unconditioned, and are known accordingly.
