First, the destined calendar has an end: since the opening of the world, never has an undying state been seen under Heaven. Second, favor and punishment lacked moderation: gentlemen loathe dwelling in the lower reaches, and for this reason turned to Zhou. It did not arise from the Buddhadharma." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10.57) - [Next: 10.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10.59) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103~en-mt.10.58) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.10.58) · Pramāṇa
