A person goes from birth to aging, from aging to sickness, and from sickness to death; such suffering is immeasurable. The mind is vexed, accumulating sins, and birth and death do not cease; such suffering is difficult to describe." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.263](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.263) - [Next: 1.265](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.265) - [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.1.264) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [四十二章經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784.1.43) — Classical Chinese - [འཕགས་པ་དུམ་བུ་ཞེ་གཉིས་པ་ཞེས་བྱ་བའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.tibet.kangyur.mdo_sde.359a.1) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.264](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.264) · Pramāṇa
