Function yet eternally quiescent, in two \[parts\]: first, properly revealing. > \[Śāstra:\] "And also and so forth": previously there was no mark of sentient beings who are transformed; here there is no mark of the adapted application of the transformer. In relation to the preceding text, it thus says "and also". "The function is eternally quiescent": although manifesting various bodies, one does not move from the limit of reality; although expounding various teachings, one constantly abides in the principle beyond words. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 15.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.15.8) - [Next: 15.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.15.10) - [Up: 15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.15) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.15.9) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.15.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.15.9) · Pramāṇa
