The first three lines are the direct refutation: if flavor were born from food, it should not depend on the faculty; without the faculty distinguishing the food, how could flavor be formed? If flavor were formed, the food would have to possess consciousness; if it lacks consciousness, how could it know itself? From 'furthermore, if the food' onward is the conditional refutation: even granting that the food could know itself, that would be identical to another person tasting the flavor; what does that have to do with the knowing of your tongue? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.129](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.3.129) - [Next: 3.131](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.3.131) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799~en-mt.3.130) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.3.130](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.3.130) · Pramāṇa
