Transliteration

dattavān gautamasyaitad aṅgirā vai mahātapāḥ | aṅgirāḥ samanujñātaḥ kāśyapena ca dhīmatā ||

Translation

The great ascetic Aṅgirā first imparted this teaching to Gautama. Aṅgirā himself had received authorization and understanding of it from the wise Kāśyapa—thus the instruction is presented as a carefully transmitted lineage of dharma.
