If we equally take the sense of hearing the Buddha preach the Dharma and increasing good roots, both persons of the Great Vehicle and persons of the Small Vehicle experience growth; this takes the metaphor of the three grasses and two trees all receiving heavenly moisture and growing. If we take the sense of knowing and not knowing, the general intent is directed specifically toward the four great śrāvakas, and therefore brings in nirvāṇa and the remaining persons.” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.6.43) - [Next: 6.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.6.45) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715~en-mt.6.44) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.6.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.6.44) · Pramāṇa
