For 'conventional' there are two explanations: the meaning of insubstantiality, which explains the conventional in relation to the ultimate; and the meaning of custom, which explains the conventional in terms of intrinsic nature. For 'worldly' there are the meaning of succession and the meaning of differentiation; in relation to what meaning are these explained? Explanation: Succession and differentiation are both explained in terms of intrinsic nature; within the worldly there are naturally succession and differentiation. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.2.37) - [Next: 2.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.2.39) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854~en-mt.2.38) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.2.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1854.2.38) · Pramāṇa
