Nowadays people do not examine themselves, but instead wrangle over prices and clamour noisily at the time of the clothing auction; how deeply foolish!” - [Previous: 6.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-mt.6.45) - [Next: 6.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-mt.6.47) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-mt.6) ## Translations (1) - [The Baizhang Zen Monastic Regulations](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-bdk.6.46) — Shohei Ichimura 2006, English ## Linked texts (1) - [勅修百丈清規](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025.6.46) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-mt.6.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2025~en-mt.6.46) · Pramāṇa
