That is, a single thought of parikalpa is the cause of arising, destruction, and ceasing; non-Buddhists do not know this, so they take the impermanence of an entity to be the cause. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.8.14) - [Next: 8.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.8.16) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791~en-mt.8.15) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.8.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.8.15) · Pramāṇa
