Everywhere they speak of Chan; Qingliang recites poetry. Can that be sufficient? If indeed it is not, one burns incense, lights candles, and bows to lumps of mud, while behind one's head a hawk flies across the distant sky. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.1.42) - [Next: 1.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.1.44) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a~en-mt.1.43) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.1.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2002a.1.43) · Pramāṇa
