What about then?" The master said: "A turtle dove cries in the tree." The monk said: "I fear the upādhyāya has not fully seen the ancients." The master said: "Only one on the same path knows." The monk said: "What after knowing?" The master said: "When an awl is kept in a cloth bag, the sharp one emerges first." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.2.90) - [Next: 2.92](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.2.92) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.2.91) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.2.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.2.91) · Pramāṇa
