When translated as 'mud', it should be taken from the event of the blood-mud in the \*Twelve Wandering Sūtra\*. From this we know that in the Sanskrit of the various sūtras it is called Gautama, while in Chinese it is called Sugar-cane or Mud; Chinese and Sanskrit are cited interchangeably, but in truth they have the same meaning. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.95](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.1.95) - [Next: 1.97](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.1.97) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035~en-mt.1.96) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.1.96](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.1.96) · Pramāṇa
