Below: explaining and establishing \[this\], in two parts: first, the explanation proper. In the Commentary, "falsely manifested": because false thoughts perfume the real, they give rise to all false dharmas. Alternatively, this text may be seen as concluding the reason why the preceding dharmas lack an essence. There are two meanings here: first, because it is mind-only; second, because it resides in falsehood. As in the preceding mirror image: first, its essence is identical to the mirror; second, its essence is unreal. On this basis, no essence can be found in any of the dharmas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.2) - [Next: 12.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.4) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.12.3) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.12.3) · Pramāṇa
