Without mind, there is no coarse examination or subtle investigation; without coarse examination or subtle investigation, there is no speech. One should know that the mind is the root of speech. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.8.38) - [Next: 8.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.8.40) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716~en-mt.8.39) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.8.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.8.39) · Pramāṇa
