Internally, arising and ceasing do not cease, and solid clinging is not abandoned; externally, motion does not rest, and rigid hardness is difficult to destroy; mutually rubbing against each other, fire is produced—just as in the method of producing fire with a drill and wood, where one is solid and the other in motion. Fire can melt and disperse, bringing all things to maturity; hence it is said to be "the nature of transformation." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.78) - [Next: 4.80](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.80) - [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.4.79) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.4.79) · Pramāṇa
