With diligence as substance, they are collectively termed 'exertion'; because they differ from the exertion of non-Buddhists, they are termed 'right.' Although it is a single diligence, according to meaning it is divided into four: first, restraining unarisen evil so that it does not arise; second, severing already-arisen evil so that it does not continue; third, causing unarisen good to arise; fourth, causing already-arisen good to increase. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.810](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.810) - [Next: 1.812](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.812) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795~en-mt.1.811) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.811](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.811) · Pramāṇa
