Or making verses in repetition; or making independent verses; or expounding on his own without being asked; or giving prediction to those who know; or those who know being endowed with the precepts; or making parables; or pointing to past worlds; or pointing to past births; or expounding the vast and great; or expounding the rare; or making discussions. This is responding to joy and desire as the worldly siddhānta giving rise to the twelve divisions of sūtras of the perfect teaching; or making twelve kinds of expounding to generate wonderful goodness; or making twelve kinds of expounding to suddenly destroy evil; or making twelve kinds of expounding to suddenly accord with principle—this is the four siddhāntas giving rise to the twelve divisions of sūtras of the perfect teaching. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.172](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1.172) - [Next: 1.174](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1.174) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716~en-mt.1.173) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1.173](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.1.173) · Pramāṇa
