Now, re-examining this, the single rank of faith corresponds too narrowly to the text. If one were to correspond them now, everything from the beginning up to "cultivating the method of detachment" constitutes the rank of faith. This is because in this rank one does not merely have empty faith, but is also able to cultivate practice, as seen in the names of the ten faiths and the treatise below. "Cultivating the five practices" and so on, from "because of knowing as it truly is" down to "in accord with practice," comprehensively corresponds to the three ranks of sages. Therein, the first two lines still tread upon the understanding of the preceding rank of faith; let the wise examine this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 13.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.13.50) - [Next: 13.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.13.52) - [Up: 13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.13) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.13.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.13.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.13.51) · Pramāṇa
