Relinquishing the body, life, and wealth is alone called the true Dharma-offering.' These words appear in the two sūtras \*Brahmajāla\* and \*Saddharmapuṇḍarīka\*; however, they were both spoken by the Māra king and are not orthodox teachings. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937.5.52) - [Next: 5.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937.5.54) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937~en-mt.5.53) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937.5.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1937.5.53) · Pramāṇa
