Furthermore, they are able to diminish obstacles such as lack of faith; hence they are also called 'powers'. The Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra says: 'Being able to destroy defilements and attain the endurance of the non-arising of dharmas, they are therefore called powers.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 37.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.37.19) - [Next: 37.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.37.21) - [Up: 37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.37) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735~en-mt.37.20) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.37.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.37.20) · Pramāṇa
