How do arrogance corresponding to vows and afflictions corresponding to powers work in meaning? Answer: Arrogance looks down upon others; if one does not produce vows, how can one act as a bridge for others to tread upon? If one does not transform afflictions, how can one harmonize one's light, remain untainted, and be constantly pure? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.9.21) - [Next: 9.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.9.23) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778~en-mt.9.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.9.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.9.22) · Pramāṇa
