You all should know! Life does not remain long; it cannot be made to stay even by the Buddha's supernatural power. This body is like a bubble, its force not lasting long. This body is like mist, constantly confusing human thoughts. This body is like a dream, increasing anger. This body is like an illusion, deceiving and bewildering worldly people. This body is like an echo, seeking a response without form. This body is like a shadow, seen by the eye but impossible to seize. Such a body of mine is extinguished here and will not be born again. What is it that is not born? It is not born again in this Jambudvīpa. Again, in thirty-two hundred billion Buddha-lands of the ten directions, I fill those lands to carry out Buddha-works; this is not something of the past. For this reason, conditioning conditions are exhausted; when conditioning conditions are not exhausted, there is no one who attains nirvāṇa." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.2.36) - [Next: 2.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.2.38) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384~en-mt.2.37) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.2.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.2.37) · Pramāṇa
