Originally seeking escape, he regressed and fell without returning; hence it is said, "long dwelt." "Or ten" represents the heavenly destiny, "twenty" the human destiny, and "fifty" the five destinies; this refers to a single person fully transmigrating through the various destinies. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.6.26) - [Next: 6.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.6.28) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718~en-mt.6.27) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.6.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.6.27) · Pramāṇa
