The World-Honoured One remained silent for a long time. The non-Buddhist praised him, saying, 'The World-Honoured One with great loving-kindness and great compassion has opened my clouds of delusion and enabled me to enter.' After the non-Buddhist left, Ānanda asked the Buddha, 'What did the non-Buddhist realize that he spoke of having entered?' The World-Honoured One said, 'Like a fine horse in the world, running at the mere shadow of the whip.' Xuedou said, 'Heterodox and orthodox are not distinguished; the fault lies in the shadow of the whip.'" The Master said, "Heterodox and orthodox are both distinguished; it is precisely due to the shadow of the whip." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.8.29) - [Next: 8.31](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.8.31) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a~en-mt.8.30) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.8.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.8.30) · Pramāṇa
