How could one, just because there are words about purity, say 'I will be born in that land'? Examining its meaning closely, I fear that in principle this is not so. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.2.44) - [Next: 2.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.2.46) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960~en-mt.2.45) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.2.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.2.45) · Pramāṇa
