Now he is entering the great sea to retrieve wonderful jewels; if he succeeds and returns, our parents will cast me aside.' Having thought this, he went and addressed his parents: 'Now I also wish to follow Kalyāṇamitra and enter the sea to retrieve wonderful jewels.' His parents, having heard this, replied: 'As you wish. At times of urgent danger on the road, when brothers accompany one another, they will surely rescue and protect each other.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.4.17) - [Next: 4.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.4.19) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156~en-mt.4.18) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.4.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.156.4.18) · Pramāṇa
