First he sets aside the previous words; next \[he inquires about\] the illness. 'Let us set this matter aside': setting aside the previous words. Question: Why is it necessary to set aside the previous words? Answer: The World-Honoured One dispatched him to come wishing to inquire about the illness; before proclaiming the Buddha's teaching, engaging in other words runs contrary to propriety; therefore it must be set aside. Furthermore, regarding such meanings as these: investigating them through words can never be exhausted; only those who realize in accordance with this can fully know them; therefore it must be set aside. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771.1.3) - [Next: 1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771.1.5) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771~en-mt.1.4) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2771.1.4) · Pramāṇa
