"Please also note how the Buddha repeated the verb 'hoti' for each
menal associate."
I asked:
"How do you know that the Pali verb was actually spoken by the
Buddha?"
You replied to me in the message No. 5317. I certainly do not
consider your response is reasonable, as suggested by Stephen Hodge.
Please also pay attention to the teachings of Kalama Sutta. It states
objective principles and attitudes for studying various beliefs.
I suggest that the statement should present in this way:
... note how the text records/reports the Buddha repeated the
verb ....
or
... note how the Buddha in the text repeated the verb ....
This will show that you are reporting how the text says (not the
Buddha actually said).
