That is, they may be more or less, and there are distinctions of the three vehicles and five spiritual families (gotra). If this person has more and that person has fewer, how could they mutually rely on one another? If one transformed more, the one with fewer would not transform them. If he defends by saying that equal ones mutually condition each other while unequal ones do not condition each other, why not admit that the eighth consciousness conditions what can be utilized and does not condition what cannot be utilized? Here, seeds are temporarily raised as an objection; the five faculties also lack the sense of being utilized by others, so how could it transform another's \[faculties\]? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.718](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.718) - [Next: 7.720](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.720) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830~en-mt.7.719) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.719](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.719) · Pramāṇa
