This has three meanings: first, holding the fruit by means of the cause; second, Jing says: upholding its own essence. Ji says: being capable and competent is called 'holding', because one who has the gotra possesses competence. Third, the preceding is capable of holding the succeeding: as in the first yoga, there are subsequently three holdings: first, the holding of gotra holds the generation of the aspiration, the holding of practice, and the holding of means; the generation of aspiration, holding of practice, and holding of means give birth to the Buddha fruit. Ce says: holding has three meanings, namely holding the fruit by means of the cause, holding the specific by means of the general, and holding the meaning by means of the text; hence it is called 'holding'. In total, including the beginning, there are eighteen chapters. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.247](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.247) - [Next: 8.249](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.249) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828~en-mt.8.248) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.248](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.248) · Pramāṇa
