2.12

2. Obtaining the precepts by self-vow: this refers to Kāśyapa. He originally possessed the capacity of a pratyekabuddha, but encountering the Buddha's appearance in the world, he was included in the rank of the śrāvakas. He answered the Buddha, saying, "The Buddha is my teacher; I am the Buddha's disciple." Having spoken these words, he immediately generated the precepts.
