This is because in that land sages have succeeded one another, awakening sentient beings and illuminating them like the moon. Alternatively, it is said that Xiandou was originally the name of the Heavenly Lord \[Indra\], and because the land is protected by the Heavenly Lord, the world accordingly named it after him). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 26.144](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.26.144) - [Next: 26.146](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.26.146) - [Up: 26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.26) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.26.145) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [涅槃玄義發源機要](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1766.1.15.1) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.26.145](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.26.145) · Pramāṇa
