@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.– HariharaCommented Aug 16 at 1:40

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– blue_egoCommented Aug 17 at 0:56
