If you only rely on verbal expressions, you will inevitably leak. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8.17) - [Next: 8.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8.19) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003~en-mt.8.18) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8.18) · Pramāṇa
