Its leaves resemble the persimmon leaves of this land. Its fruit is called \*tala\*, as large as a five-pint jar; eating it removes heat and phlegm. The \*Zhihua\* says: 'Translated by meaning as willow, because the tree is large and the seeds small, resembling the willows of this land; hence it was translated as such.' The \*Song Biographies of Eminent Monks\* says: 'Translation means exchange; that is, using what one has to translate what one lacks. Just as the \*nyagrodha\* tree is the willow of the Eastern Xia: though the names differ, the essence of the tree is one.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.133](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.133) - [Next: 3.135](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.135) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.3.134) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.134](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.134) · Pramāṇa
