Among the three virtues, dress comes first; hence it is called 'the first.') > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.4) - [Next: 3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.6) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118~en-mt.3.5) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.5) · Pramāṇa
