Now at that time Pokkharasāti had a student named Ambaṭṭha as his resident pupil. He was one who recited and remembered the hymns, and had mastered in the three Vedas, together with their vocabularies and ritual performance, their phonology and word classification, and the testaments as fifth. He knew them word-by-word, and their grammar. He was well versed in cosmology and the marks of a great man. He had been authorized as a master in his own tutor’s scriptural heritage of the three Vedas with the words:
1.3.2
“yamahaṃ jānāmi taṃ tvaṃ jānāsi;
“What I know, you know.
1.3.3
yaṃ tvaṃ jānāsi tamahaṃ jānāmī”ti.
And what you know, I know.”
