The \*Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa\* translates this as "human" (ren), which is the grasping onto a human; a full translation should be "human-born" (manuja). This is a faction of the Īśvara non-Buddhists, who hold that humans are born from humans, and thus take this as their name. The Tripiṭaka Master of the Tang says "mind-born" (manas-ja), which is incorrect. \*Manas\* is mind; here it is \*manu\*, which has shifted in sound and differs in meaning, hence an error. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796.2.15) - [Next: 2.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796.2.17) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796~en-mt.2.16) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796.2.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1796.2.16) · Pramāṇa
