The jade seal transmits the family; retiring from position, one is named the Royal Father. A lifespan of myriad upon myriad years: serene, prosperous, and venerable. Causes and conditions of thousands upon thousands of worlds: in movement becoming its sons. Do you know where such a person enjoys it?" After a long pause, he said, "Looking up to it, it is loftier still; boring into it, it is harder still. Behold it in front; suddenly it is behind." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.290](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.290) - [Next: 4.292](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.292) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001~en-mt.4.291) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.291](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2001.4.291) · Pramāṇa
