If I do not think of you, then you will not arise.' The Buddha, walking along the path, heard this and said to the śramaṇas: 'Remember this! This is a verse of Kāśyapa Buddha that has circulated among the worldly.'" - [Previous: 1.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-mt.1.36) - [Next: 1.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-mt.1.38) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-mt.1) ## Translations (1) - [The Sutra of Forty-two Sections](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-bdk.1.37) — Heng-ching Shih 2005, English ## Linked texts (1) - [四十二章經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784.1.37) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-mt.1.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.784~en-mt.1.37) · Pramāṇa
