Therefore his house style was steep and unyielding, solitary, stern, and hard to enter; for the wondrous application and mastery reside neither in words nor apart from words—only one who turns the entire great earth into a single eye can recognize it. At the very end, he let the treasury of the true Dharma eye be extinguished by that blind donkey. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985.1.5) - [Next: 1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985.1.7) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985~en-mt.1.6) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1985.1.6) · Pramāṇa
