Though they differ according to direction, they do not depart from a single reflection; though the seven great elements are differentiated, they do not depart from a single falsehood. If the east can be taken as the standard, what then is the west? What is real is one, and ought not to go separately; if one knows it is a reflection, oneness and multiplicity naturally vanish. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.192](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.192) - [Next: 4.194](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.194) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799~en-mt.4.193) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.193](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.193) · Pramāṇa
