Since it is not the substance of a karmic maturation, its power must depend on an archetype to arise. In the untainted stage, its presence is indefinite: when apprehending tathatā, space, and the past and future, it lacks an external archetype; when apprehending the present time, conditioned dharmas, and so forth, it possesses an external archetype. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.722](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.722) - [Next: 7.724](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.724) - [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.7.723) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.723](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1830.7.723) · Pramāṇa
