The principle is indeed so; how is it with the phenomena? Stepping down from the seat, I will go with the assembly before Amitāyus Tathāgata, casting the five limbs to the ground to inaugurate the Tianshen Imperial Birthday bodhimanda. Respectfully spoken." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.5.21) - [Next: 5.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.5.23) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a~en-mt.5.22) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大方廣佛華嚴經隨疏演義鈔](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.18.73) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.5.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1998a.5.22) · Pramāṇa
