And what is a ghost's livelihood? A monkey entering a cloth bag." He further said, "For ninety days tie up the mouth of the bag; / Abide peacefully in the path of liberation. / Water and milk naturally blend together; / The myriad conditions cause no disturbance. / Quickly swallow the chestnut burr; / Boldly leap through the diamond cage. / Together penetrate, for the patched-robed monks, / The single aperture on the crown of the head." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8.14) - [Next: 8.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8.16) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.8.15) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.8.15) · Pramāṇa
