This section broadly clarifies how profound the yearning for the Dharma is, such that relinquishing one's body and life is not considered difficult. By cultivating holy action with such a renouncing mind, what could fail to be fully prepared? By such ascetic practice, in what circumstance could one retreat? The difficulty of holy action is none greater than this; hence this practice is used to conclude holy action. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 35.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.35.7) - [Next: 35.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.35.9) - [Up: 35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.35) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.35.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.35.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.35.8) · Pramāṇa
