Their grades are said by some to be three, by others nine, or immeasurable grades, mutually delighting one another; with virtues crowded and bustling, one cannot attain one-pointedness of mind. It is like constantly performing theatricals, or like having many guests: having attended to one, another arrives again. Dispersing outwards, they are temporarily absent; slightly gathered, they reappear. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.34) - [Next: 9.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.36) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911~en-mt.9.35) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.35) · Pramāṇa
