Prince Kṣānti went to inform the ministers: 'My father the king is gravely ill; what should we do now?' When the ministers heard this, anger arose in their hearts, and they replied to the prince, saying: 'The king's life will not last long. Why is this? Because the wondrous medicine we seek cannot be obtained; therefore know that his death is not far off.' When the prince heard this, distress arose in his heart, and he fainted and collapsed to the ground." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.3.18) - [Next: 3.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.3.20) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156~en-mt.3.19) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [ཐབས་མཁས་པ་ཆེན་པོ་སངས་རྒྱས་དྲིན་ལན་བསབ་པའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.tibet.kangyur.mdo_sde.353.3.9) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.3.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.3.19) · Pramāṇa
