This is truly laughable! It is clearly known that Buddhism is a technique for eradicating evil. We have humbly heard that the virtue of the noble person begins with filial piety: "The body, hair, and skin are received from parents; one dares not damage them."' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.8.34) - [Next: 8.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.8.36) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102~en-mt.8.35) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [廣弘明集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10.56) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.8.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2102.8.35) · Pramāṇa
