As for the mind of pariṇāmanā and making vows: the mundane and supramundane roots of good cultivated through the bodily, verbal, and mental karma of the past and the present life, as well as rejoicing in the mundane and supramundane roots of good cultivated through the bodily, verbal, and mental karma of all other ordinary beings and sages—with all these roots of good cultivated by oneself and others, in a mind of genuine and deep faith, one dedicates them all and vows to be reborn in that land; therefore it is called the mind of pariṇāmanā and making vows. Furthermore, in dedicating and vowing to be reborn, one must, within a decisively genuine mind, dedicate and vow, forming the thought of attaining rebirth. This mind of deep faith is like a diamond, not shaken, confused, or destroyed by any persons of differing views, differing studies, distinct understandings, or distinct practices. One merely with a decisively single mind devotes oneself to proceeding directly forward, and must not, upon hearing those people's words, waver, give rise to cowardice, look back, or fall off the path, thereby losing the great benefit of rebirth. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.4.20) - [Next: 4.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.4.22) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753~en-mt.4.21) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.4.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.4.21) · Pramāṇa
