Mahāmati therefore brought up the contradiction between these two teachings to request that the Tathāgata harmonize them: Is it non-nature? Or is it an alternate name for the Tathāgata? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.148](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.148) - [Next: 7.150](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.150) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791~en-mt.7.149) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大乘入楞伽經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.lankavatara*zh-siksananda.5.10) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.149) · Pramāṇa
