He then asked the monks: "Is there still anyone who is self-awakened without a master?" The assembly was silent. The master said: "Those doomed to die take the bait." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.4.78) - [Next: 4.80](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.4.80) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996~en-mt.4.79) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.4.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1996.4.79) · Pramāṇa
