Therefore tīrthikas call the spirit a 'person', considering it unchanging from beginning to end. If the limits of before and after in phenomena are cut off, then moment by moment they are distinct; if moment by moment they are distinct, then there is nothing unchanging; if there is nothing unchanging, then there is no longer a person." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.330](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.330) - [Next: 1.332](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.332) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777~en-mt.1.331) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [注維摩詰經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2.258) — Classical Chinese - [維摩經略疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.4.53) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.331](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.331) · Pramāṇa
