That is to say, the four great elements also do not perish; they circulate through the seven destinies, their intrinsic nature is permanent, and they are non-arising and non-ceasing. Although the various phenomena spoken by the Tathāgata through differentiation differ slightly, in reality they are none other than what non-Buddhists have already spoken. If there is a difference, we pray you explain the reason; if there is no different meaning, then all non-Buddhists are precisely Tathāgatas. The World-Honoured One constantly says that it is impossible for multiple Buddhas to appear in a single world; but according to what was just said, then there should be, because what they say is no different from the Tathāgata. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.188](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.188) - [Next: 7.190](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.190) - [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.7.189) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.189](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.7.189) · Pramāṇa
