May you please explain its meaning.” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569.1.14) - [Next: 1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569.1.16) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569~en-mt.1.15) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569.1.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.569.1.15) · Pramāṇa
