The dream-talk of the old foreigner for forty-nine years may be set aside for now; what Elder Kauṇḍinya in the monks' hall brought up for you all—do you still remember?" After a long pause she said, "You had best cherish your eyebrows." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 18.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.18.58) - [Next: 18.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.18.60) - [Up: 18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.18) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077~en-mt.18.59) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.18.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2077.18.59) · Pramāṇa
