Twenty-one thousand defilements belong to each one illness; as there are four illnesses, there are eighty-four thousand. Stated generally, there are eighty-four thousand; regarding particular characteristics, they are immeasurable. Now by speaking of eighty-four thousand, immeasurable ones are subsumed, and thus they are called 'gates.' \[Seng\]zhao says: The three poisons and their equal combination—these four are the roots of affliction. Based on one root, twenty-one thousand afflictions arise, making eighty-four thousand in total. Because from the eighty-four thousand immeasurable defilements issue forth, they are called 'gates.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.61) - [Next: 9.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.63) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.9.62) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.62) · Pramāṇa
