If benefiting beings is considered 'anew,' then throughout the forty-nine years there has never been a time he was not benefiting them; one should not say only today is 'anew.' > Sengzong says: From here on down, he explains the meaning of there being no 'anew' in nine tiers. This is the first, clarifying the difference in teaching: namely, that the past was shallow and the present is profound. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 34.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.34.21) - [Next: 34.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.34.23) - [Up: 34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.34) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.34.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.34.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.34.22) · Pramāṇa
