If speaking solely of persons, there are fifty-four persons, meaning that among the fifty-five assemblies, four assemblies have only one person, namely Mañjuśrī; furthermore, two assemblies each have two persons, namely Sarvagāmin and Śilpābhijña, together with the boy and girl. Therefore, while there are fifty-five assemblies, there are fifty-four leaders. 2. If identifying persons through the assemblies, there are fifty-seven persons, meaning that in two places among the fifty-five assemblies, one \[person\] is added to each, namely Sarvagāmin and so forth, as can be known. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 18.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.18.25) - [Next: 18.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.18.27) - [Up: 18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.18) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733~en-mt.18.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.18.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.18.26) · Pramāṇa
