Because generation after generation he does not use harsh speech, he obtains the eight kinds of vocal qualities. Because generation after generation he is free from double-tongued speech and false speech, he is fully able to respond to whatever thoughts the multitude has.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 23.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.23.56) - [Next: 23.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.23.58) - [Up: 23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.23) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.23.57) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [佛說太子刷護經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.ratnakuta.simhapariprccha*zh-dharmaraksa.1.20) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.23.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.23.57) · Pramāṇa
