Now the mind is not self-caused as mind, but must depend on conditions; since it first manifests by means of conditions, one therefore knows that it lacks intrinsic nature. Furthermore, the dust mote is not self-caused as a dust mote, but also depends on the mind; since it manifests only by means of the mind, one therefore knows that it lacks an other-nature. Moreover, all phenomena are neither self-produced nor other-produced, and therefore there is neither self nor other. Now speaking of "self" and "other" is not a view of distinct difference: the self is the self of the other, and the other is the other of the self; self and other are of a single realm, spoken of with sovereign ease. The treatise says: "Intrinsic nature does not exist, nor does other-nature exist either." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.24) - [Next: 1.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.26) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875~en-mt.1.25) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.25) · Pramāṇa
