Observing present dharmas with respect to the prior and posterior limits: since they merely arise from the aggregation of conditions, how could they wait for conditions to separate before they perish? Because causes and conditions are not a true harmony, they are ever separate even right now, and they are also perishing right now. Form is itself emptiness; its nature is inherently so. Hence conditioned arising is itself prakṛti-śūnyatā. The holy master Qingliang said: "Conditioned arising is asvabhāva; its very substance is true." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.1.21) - [Next: 1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.1.23) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860~en-mt.1.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.1.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.1.22) · Pramāṇa
