Upagupta filled his abbot's room with tallies, yet never delivered a single person. Bodhidharma did not dwell at Shaoshi; the Sixth Patriarch did not abide at Caoxi. Who are the descendants? Who are the foremost awakened?" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.180](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.5.180) - [Next: 5.182](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.5.182) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.5.181) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.5.181](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.5.181) · Pramāṇa
