Could that boy at that time have been someone else? It was none other than my very self!" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.9.11) - [Next: 9.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.9.13) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643~en-mt.9.12) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.9.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.643.9.12) · Pramāṇa
