Hence fascicle thirty-two of the \*Nyāyānusāra\* says: Atoms are of two kinds, first, real; second, designated. "Real" refers to the intrinsically established intrinsic nature of form and the like, acquired by direct perception at the stage of aggregation; "designated" refers to that known through inference by breaking down. Fearing confusion with the Sarvāstivāda school, it only spoke of the designated; in reality, Mahāyāna also has both. Saying that aggregated matter has no atoms is also to be understood in this way. How could our own school lack subtly obstructive matter? Furthermore, in Mahāyāna, aggregated matter is not formed by the accumulation of dispersed atoms; when it is said that aggregated matter lacks them, the principle of breaking down the aggregate into atoms is not contradicted. Furthermore, when bodhisattvas and others engage in the contemplation of water and the like, they transform the faculties, dusts, and other categories of the fundamental material basis into water, fire, gold, silver, ghee, and so forth; why then should contemplation of atoms alone not be able to transform that fundamental material basis into atoms? If one allows them to become atoms, why not allow that there is a fundamental material basis of atoms? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.161](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.2.161) - [Next: 2.163](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.2.163) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833~en-mt.2.162) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.2.162](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1833.2.162) · Pramāṇa
