"The mind of sentient beings" is a tatpuruṣa compound. Hence the text below says: "Sentient beings rely on the mind and manas because of the revolving of the manovijñāna." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.6.6) - [Next: 6.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.6.8) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.6.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.6.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.6.7) · Pramāṇa
