Within the prose there are intrinsically two: first, predicting the characteristics of Pūrṇa's practice of causes; second, from "after immeasurable asaṃkhyeya kalpas" below, predicting his attainment of the fruit. As for the first, predicting the characteristics of his practice of causes, it clarifies that Pūrṇa protected and upheld the Dharma-store at the places of five Buddhas, which then forms five sections: first, clarifying that he protected and upheld the Dharma-store at the place of Śākya. Since Pūrṇa was at that time present in the assembly, why did he say, "Do you see him or not?" The Buddha's meaning was merely to say: "You only see his physical form and do not see his practice"; hence he said, "Do you see him or not?" Second, the statement from "You should not say" below clarifies that Pūrṇa was able to protect and uphold the Dharma-store at the places of ninety billion past Buddhas; the meaning herein is entirely to reveal the trace; third, the statement, "protected and upheld the Dharma-store at the places of the Seven Buddhas"; fourth, the statement, "protected and upheld the Dharma-store at the places of the Buddhas in the Bhadrakalpa"; fifth, the statement, "protected and upheld the Dharma-store at the places of immeasurable future Buddhas"—such categories are all the meaning of practicing causes. From "After immeasurable asaṃkhyeya kalpas" below, this is the second, predicting his attainment of the fruit. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.7.42) - [Next: 7.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.7.44) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715~en-mt.7.43) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.7.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1715.7.43) · Pramāṇa
