If one wishes to say it is non-existent, when conditions assemble forms appear. When conditions assemble to form, it cannot be called non-existent; not being of itself, it cannot be called existent. Furthermore, because there is existence, there is non-existence—without existence, what would there be to be non-existent? Because there is non-existence, there is existence—without non-existence, what would there be to exist? Thus, existing by itself it does not exist; non-existing by itself it is not non-existent. This is the correct preaching of the Dharma King. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.273](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1.273) - [Next: 1.275](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1.275) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.1.274) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [淨名經集解關中疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.136) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1.274](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.1.274) · Pramāṇa
