Yet \[the sūtra says\] water eliminates them because touching the water serves as a condition that arouses wisdom to purge and eliminate them. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.216](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.216) - [Next: 2.218](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.218) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748~en-mt.2.217) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.217](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.217) · Pramāṇa
