That is to say, from thought-moment to thought-moment, preceding ones cease and succeeding ones arise, continuous without interruption, like a flowing stream of water. Therefore, a sūtra states that in a single thought-moment there are ninety kṣaṇas, and in a single kṣaṇa there are nine hundred arisings and ceasings. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.177](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.2.177) - [Next: 2.179](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.2.179) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702~en-mt.2.178) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.2.178](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.2.178) · Pramāṇa
