'Jiaofanpoti' is corrupted. In the past, because he plucked a stalk of grain and several grains fell to the ground, he had to repay others by being a cow for five hundred lives. Even though he now has a human body, he still has the appearance of cow hooves and cow rumination; hence he is called the Bovine Appearance Monk. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.100](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.1.100) - [Next: 1.102](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.1.102) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723~en-mt.1.101) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.1.101](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.1.101) · Pramāṇa
