  • @blue_ego. I can try but have no context. Why don't you try google lens and google translate since you would have read the remaining parts of this text too.

  • I think some of Buddha's following had realizations too (transcribed in early Buddhist scripture, e.g. "nirvana is the end of existence") but he himself wasn't known to teach like that

    The word vijnana by the way also means scientific knowledge. vedabase.io/en/search/synonyms/?original=vij%C3%B1%C4%81na

    Open to any corrections. The word for 'external meaning' is Bāhyārtha (बाह्यार्थ). You can read its meanings here: wisdomlib.org/definition/bahyartha#sanskrit
