Furthermore, following the instructions of the senior monk, the practitioners each go out to wash their hands and rinse their mouths, then each returns to take their seat. Each recites a verse and then rises in proper sequence, without skipping over others." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 42.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.23) - [Next: 42.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.25) - [Up: 42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.42.24) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.75) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.24) · Pramāṇa
