The noble Dharma also spans the three periods of time; which period constitutes response? The past has already ceased; the present does not abide; the future has not yet arrived. None can serve as capacity, nor can they serve as response. How then can capacity and response be discussed? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 61.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.61.35) - [Next: 61.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.61.37) - [Up: 61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.61) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.61.36) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [妙法蓮華經玄義](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.6.23) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.61.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.61.36) · Pramāṇa
