The Anban shouyi sanmei jing states: "'An' means arising, and 'ban' means cessation." If explained in terms of the arising and cessation of breath, the meaning is as stated above; if spoken in terms of the arising and cessation of mind, then it is not fixed. Here, inhalation and exhalation are used as the correct translation. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.5.18) - [Next: 5.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.5.20) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.5.19) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.5.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.5.19) · Pramāṇa
