[Matthew Kapstein]

Dear Patrick,

This is clearly a modern restatement and reinterpretation of the Buddha's injunction to recite the teaching in
his own language, with the long-debated ambiguity about whether this meant the Buddha's own language or the
interlocutor's. I'm traveling without reference materials just now but as I recall the issue is discussed at langth by Edgerton in the intro 
to his BHS Grammar and in more recent work by Bechert, Norman and othrs.

best,
Matthew
