Giving generously to others material possessions obtained through utmost hardship and toil is the third difficult practice. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.93](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.3.93) - [Next: 3.95](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.3.95) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862~en-mt.3.94) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.3.94](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.3.94) · Pramāṇa
