Learning and aspiring to seek the Buddha is for the purpose of rescuing sentient beings.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.92](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.92) - [Next: 1.94](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.94) - [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.1.93) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [四十二章經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784.1.15) — 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.1794.1.93](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1794.1.93) · Pramāṇa
