In the long run, one naturally arrives at the place of non-action and non-affair. The moment a hair's breadth of desire to have no affair arises, an affair has already been born. When one wave stirs, ten thousand waves follow—how could there ever be an end? When life and death arrive in the future, your hands and feet will be flustered, simply because you were not free and detached. Only if you take this as solid and real will you naturally be as pure as water even in a bustling marketplace. How could your own matter fail to be settled? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 15.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.15.24) - [Next: 15.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.15.26) - [Up: 15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.15) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.15.25) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.15.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.15.25) · Pramāṇa
