'Great' is one's own practice; 'love' is converting others, as taking birth on account of love and entering existence on account of compassion; 'the Path' connects both one's own practice and converting others. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.2.54) - [Next: 2.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.2.56) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718~en-mt.2.55) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.2.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.2.55) · Pramāṇa
