The sounds of his speech held both sweetness and bitterness; speaking of the past, he knew the future, and understood the present with clarity. When asked one thing by another, he responded with ten thousand billion, with meanings so profound they were difficult to fathom. At that time, Bodhisattva Upholder of Emptiness rose from his seat, bared his right shoulder, knelt with his right knee on the ground, and said to the Buddha: “How do bodhisattvas deliver suffering sentient beings?” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6.28) - [Next: 6.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6.30) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384~en-mt.6.29) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6.29) · Pramāṇa
