Defilement has the meaning of dregs and impurity; because the defiling aspect of karma is subtle, it is not established as a defilement. Furthermore, the weapons during a kalpa are precisely the defilement of karma; because the defilement of the kalpa is broad, it takes its name from the broader category; establishing it this way is also without error. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.4.52) - [Next: 4.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.4.54) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723~en-mt.4.53) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.4.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.4.53) · Pramāṇa
