Among these eight precepts, the first four are the precept portion, the next one is the non-negligence portion, and the last three are the cultivation-accordant portion. This meaning exists in the Triyāna, Hīnayāna, humans, devas, and the like, and it also applies to the Ekayāna, since it is designated by the Ekayāna and constitutes an expedient means when dedicated toward the Ekayāna. The remaining meanings are as in the separate section. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.36) - [Next: 2.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.38) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870~en-mt.2.37) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.37) · Pramāṇa
