The sūtra's intended meaning is: For what reason are micro-atoms spoken of? The explanation means: Because they have no real substance. The questioning also means: Why is it that micro-atoms are said to be empty, yet micro-atoms are spoken of—what does this mean? The explanation means: What the Buddha speaks of is not real micro-atoms; they are empty micro-atoms. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.7.50) - [Next: 7.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.7.52) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702~en-mt.7.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.7.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.7.51) · Pramāṇa
