Answer: The time within the Bhadrakalpa is long, and viewing earlier and later in relation to one another is called 'the future'; it is not the future in relation to the Constellation Kalpa. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.50) - [Next: 1.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.52) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774~en-mt.1.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.51) · Pramāṇa
