Although the essence is of a single flavor, it differs in myriad ways according to its significance; yet the essence and its significance are not distinct. Since there is no single \[fixed\] nature, it is precisely thusness; and since there is no lack of natures, its meanings are differentiated. These two are the essential character of the ultimate principle. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843.1.24) - [Next: 1.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843.1.26) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843~en-mt.1.25) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843.1.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1843.1.25) · Pramāṇa
