It contains the shallow and the deep: that which is shallow has small merit and holds a low rank among the nine grades; that which is deep has great merit and holds a high rank among the nine grades. Yet all alike bring escape from saṃsāra and longevity without aging. Now I first set forth the shallow, and next reach the deep, according to what each person practices. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.4.1) - [Next: 4.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.4.3) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970~en-mt.4.2) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.4.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1970.4.2) · Pramāṇa
