Tan said, 'Now in practicing and studying, where there is one person, one must go; where there is half a person, one must also go.' Mingzhao then asked, 'Leaving aside where there is one person, what is it where there is half a person?' Tan was speechless. Later he had his junior disciple ask Mingzhao. Mingzhao said, 'Do you want to know the half a person? He is just a fellow playing with clumps of mud.'" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.81](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.81) - [Next: 6.83](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.83) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.6.82) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.82](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.82) · Pramāṇa
