Here there are four points: 1. at each of the four corners of the palace there is a pillar; 2. each of the jeweled pillars has jeweled multi-storied pavilions, and 'Brahmā-maṇi' refers to pure maṇi or the cintāmaṇi of the Great Brahmā King, these pillars all being interlaced with Brahmā cintāmaṇis; 3. the heavenly maidens within the pavilions hold musical instruments in their hands; 4. the musical sounds expound the Dharma. Inwardly cultivating the four applications of mindfulness, the mind abides unmoving; outwardly this evokes the various adornments of the four pillars. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.70](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.2.70) - [Next: 2.72](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.2.72) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772~en-mt.2.71) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.2.71](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.2.71) · Pramāṇa
