In the former part, among the six fulfillments, faith and hearing belong to Ānanda, being established at the time of the council after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa, and do not serve as conditions for the sūtra. The remaining four fulfillments serve as the conditions for the arising of the sūtra: the exposition must rely on a time; it must have a place; and the persons encompass the expounder and the hearers, which are the Buddha and the assembly—these four meanings are sufficient. Question: The \*Mahāprajñāpāramitā-upadeśa\* states, 'Expounding the time, place, and persons is to generate faith.' Why does it now say they are conditions for its arising? Answer: Among the six, the first two pertain solely to verifying faith; the latter four have both functions: Ānanda cited them to generate faith in living beings, but at that time without these, the teaching could not have arisen, so they serve as conditions for its arising. Now, these four are fully present among the ten conditions. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.3.47) - [Next: 3.49](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.3.49) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736~en-mt.3.48) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.3.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.3.48) · Pramāṇa
