One seer had sons; two brothers came together to visit their father, and the younger one shaved all the seers. The seers vowed to protect him, and later he attained the path of a seer; ever since, this lineage has been called 'Shaving'. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 84.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.84.50) - [Next: 84.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.84.52) - [Up: 84](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.84) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736~en-mt.84.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.84.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.84.51) · Pramāṇa
