These three challenges above mean: if they are originally buddhas, why do afflictions arise? If within the non-arising the false arises, then the Tathāgata's attainment of buddhahood is identical with original non-arising, and within non-arising the false should also arise; since the meaning of attaining buddhahood is equal, shouldn't arising or non-arising be identical? If they are identically subject to arising, then why is the result-buddha revered? If they are not identically subject to it, then the cause contradicts present actualities. Neither advancing nor retreating is tenable; hence this is spoken. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.954](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.954) - [Next: 1.956](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.956) - [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.1.955) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.955](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1795.1.955) · Pramāṇa
