In my Dharma, there is no rule of accepting individual invitations. If someone specifically invites a monk, they are not my disciple; this is the dharma of the six teachers, forbidden by the seven Buddhas. Therefore we know there are three kinds of giving, and thus one cannot discuss them in a sweeping manner. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.10.52) - [Next: 10.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.10.54) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123~en-mt.10.53) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [華嚴經探玄記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.8.8.2) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.10.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.10.53) · Pramāṇa
