“At the time that he would teach some one thing, like any ordinary speaker,—it would be the assertion of a man with partial knowledge, not that of an omniscient person.”—(3240)

Kamalaśīla

It might be said that “He would impart the teaching on waking from Meditation”.

The answer to that is as follows:—[see verse 3240 above]

As a matter of fact, Speaking can never proceed without some Cognition; hence when He would teach Dharma, He could do so only when His mind would, be in the conceptual state; and in this state there is no difference between the child and the wise man; so that He would be not—omniscient, and His assertion would not be the assertion of the Omniscient Person.—(3240)
