Right here, do not force a name on it—where could a sharp edge be found? If you take hold of it directly, it is still a broken bow and snapped arrow—what use can it serve? Hesitating and deliberating, it is just a broom on the battlefield." With his staff he drove them all down at once. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.60) - [Next: 1.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.62) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992~en-mt.1.61) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1992.1.61) · Pramāṇa
