How could ten recitations extinguish that much evil karma? Even if one were to reach one million times, it is still far too little. If it is not completely eradicated, how could one attain rebirth in the pure land without having eradicated one's evil karma? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963.3.43) - [Next: 3.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963.3.45) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963~en-mt.3.44) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963.3.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1963.3.44) · Pramāṇa
