Even if there were a self, they do not see it as such. Since in principle there is no self, arrogance ultimately has no subject.' Contemplating thus, the arrogant mind naturally dissolves. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.217](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.217) - [Next: 8.219](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.219) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.8.218) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.218](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.218) · Pramāṇa
