Why does it say here that avidyā perfumes tathatā? Answer: That treatise provisionally considers conceivable perfuming; therefore it says that permanent dharmas cannot receive perfuming. This treatise relies on inconceivable perfuming; therefore it says that avidyā perfumes tathatā, and tathatā perfumes avidyā. Because these two kinds of perfuming differ in meaning, the two treatises do not contradict each other. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.165](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845.1.165) - [Next: 1.167](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845.1.167) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845~en-mt.1.166) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845.1.166](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1845.1.166) · Pramāṇa
