As for being named space: having no nature and no phenomena, yet nonexistent phenomena having a function, its nature is identical with space, so it is named accordingly. Regarding food going down and circulating: it says that when all sounds and the two existences follow each other, food cannot go down and sound does not issue forth; because absence of the one allows food to go down and sound to issue forth, this speaks of the function of space. Deluded people, hearing that space has a function, claim that there is a phenomenon of space, subsumed under the sphere of mental objects or the sphere of form. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 65.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.65.25) - [Next: 65.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.65.27) - [Up: 65](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.65) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.65.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.65.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.65.26) · Pramāṇa
