Could it be that the flowing water of a clear river truly contains fierce fire? Therefore it is said that there is no objective realm, but only mind and consciousness. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.157](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9.157) - [Next: 9.159](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9.159) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791~en-mt.9.158) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9.158](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1791.9.158) · Pramāṇa
