That which is called permanent is called permanent merely on account of afflictions. Regarding the severing of permanent afflictions: above it was said that causes and fruits are all permanent, without yet distinguishing the causes whose permanence has longer or shorter duration. They are permanent on account of defilements and delusions; when defilements and delusions are exhausted, the causes are extinguished. The fruit is permanent because it is without delusion; because it is permanent, it does not alter. Baoliang states: Having completed one exposition, he offers praise, clarifying that the realms, karma, fruit, and buddhadhātu of all sentient beings and all buddhas are entirely inconceivable. Although the four dharmas such as the fruit of buddhahood are permanent, sentient beings give rise to afflictions and are obstructed and covered by karmic hindrances, so they are constantly ignorant and without understanding. How could the coming turn not be permanent? What was said above about the permanence of afflictions is precisely derived from this passage. Because they are eliminated throughout from beginning to end, it is said that severing permanent afflictions is called impermanence. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 56.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.56.115) - [Next: 56.117](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.56.117) - [Up: 56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.56) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.56.116) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.56.116](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.56.116) · Pramāṇa
