Blended together, light and dark have no place of division; who discerns the biased and upright orientations within this? Therefore it is said: 'Though the upright position is upright, it is biased; though the biased position is biased, it is complete.' Right at such a time, how do you discern it?" After a long pause, he said: "Distinctly before the mechanism, eyes of dual illumination; stately beyond forms, a body of ten thousand years." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.1.16) - [Next: 1.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.1.18) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001~en-mt.1.17) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.1.17) · Pramāṇa
