Sentient beings are fully fettered and should hear the complete teaching; principle and destiny resonate with each other, which is the meaning of going to the teacher. If the mind is small and hears the teaching of full syllables, it certainly cannot receive it, which is compared to not achieving success quickly. Hence he speaks of all phenomena being impermanent to guide them in, which is like leading them back. The biased teachings of the three vehicles are compared to the half-syllable." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 13.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.13.11) - [Next: 13.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.13.13) - [Up: 13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.13) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.13.12) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.13.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.13.12) · Pramāṇa
