Non-existence does not exist by itself; it must depend on existence. Therefore, high and low tilt into one another, and existence and non-existence generate one another; this is the natural destiny. Destiny reaches its ultimate in this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.178](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.3.178) - [Next: 3.180](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.3.180) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860~en-mt.3.179) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.3.179](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1860.3.179) · Pramāṇa
