Yet the śramaṇas of today indulge in alcohol; some keep wives and children; they buy low and sell high, practicing deception exclusively. This is indeed the great hypocrisy of the world, yet the Buddhist Dao calls it non-action?" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.1.21) - [Next: 1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.1.23) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102~en-mt.1.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.1.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.1.22) · Pramāṇa
