The foolish covet worldly reputation and do not maintain the truth of the Way; the disaster of illusory fame imperiling oneself brings regret only when it is too late." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.188](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.188) - [Next: 1.190](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.190) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794~en-mt.1.189) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [四十二章經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784.1.26) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.189](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.189) · Pramāṇa
