Baoliang says: The Buddha knew that Sunakkhatta was destined to sever his good roots, so he brought him to go forth to let him generate subtle goodness, establishing provision for future lives. Furthermore, if he had not gone forth, his evil would have grown unrestrained. For this reason, he led him into the path. However, the compiler of the sūtra has already revealed that Devadatta was a provisional trace, yet has never disclosed the expedient nature of Sunakkhatta. Judging from this, the sūtra text should not only contain this. Examining the principle and seeking the meaning, by analogy it should not be real; it was likely not fully stated. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 63.100](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.63.100) - [Next: 63.102](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.63.102) - [Up: 63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.63) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.63.101) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.63.101](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.63.101) · Pramāṇa
