My thinking does not penetrate subtlety, and I am moreover clumsy in written expression. Furthermore, the ultimate purport is beyond words; words inevitably depart from the purport. If talk continues endlessly, what after all is discerned? I merely use wild words to present a reply to your esteemed message. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858.1.46) - [Next: 1.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858.1.48) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858~en-mt.1.47) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [肇論新疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.2.319) — Classical Chinese - [肇論疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1859.2.53) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858.1.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1858.1.47) · Pramāṇa
