Ordinary beings and non-Buddhists are the persons intended, setting aside the assemblies of great bodhisattvas who have entered the grounds (bhūmi). For those on the first ground and above see an even longer \[lifespan\]; it is not that \[the Buddha\] does not manifest cessation for them. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.76](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.2.76) - [Next: 2.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.2.78) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788~en-mt.2.77) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.2.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.2.77) · Pramāṇa
