The Buddha uses the four siddhāntas to preach the Dharma, trimming away the crookedness of treatises based on craving and views, causing them to generate true views and the undefiled noble path. Therefore sūtra contains the sense of "marking-cord". > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.5.7) - [Next: 5.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.5.9) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777~en-mt.5.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.5.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1777.5.8) · Pramāṇa
