What should I transform?" (Second, the reply has three parts: 1. clarifying non-transformation; 2. clarifying transformation; 3. clarifying neither transformation nor non-transformation. The first has four parts: 1. clarifying no transformation; 2. counter-question; 3. answer; 4. rebuke. This is the first. \[Seng\]zhao says: "Since staying in this room, in the true Dharma I have heard, I have never perceived a female body to be different from a male; what should I transform? As for the goddess's awakening to the mark of a woman, could it be only twelve years? Wishing to make clear that this room has a pure, uniform, equal teaching without mixed sounds, she speaks merely up to this limit.") > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.142](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.142) - [Next: 2.144](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.144) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777~en-mt.2.143) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [注維摩詰經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.6.290) — Classical Chinese - [維摩經略疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.8.78) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.143](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.143) · Pramāṇa
