Analyzing from a thirty-two-syllable name down to a single-syllable name is called the absolute minimum of name. By extension, analyzing multiple names down to a single name is taken as the absolute minimum. Thus, when combining two syllables and above, whether there is no separate entity or there is a separate entity, the meaning is not contradictory either way. Just as with the specks of dust of an atom, gold, water, a hare, a sheep, an ox, and so forth, apart from their substantive atoms there is no separate entity. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.12.4) - [Next: 12.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.12.6) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822~en-mt.12.5) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.12.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1822.12.5) · Pramāṇa
