Second, both past and present are real: the past takes the three as real, and the present takes the one as real. Third, both three and one are provisional: discussed in view of the correct path, there has never been three or one; both three and one are opening the path and are called gateways to the path, so both are provisional. Fourth, real in the present and provisional in the past: the present takes the one as real, and in relation to the past it is non-real in meaning, termed provisional. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.3.50) - [Next: 3.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.3.52) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721~en-mt.3.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.3.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.3.51) · Pramāṇa
