Verse 426

Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration and English translation by Ganganath Jha:

निरालम्बनमेवेदमम्बराम्भोरुहादिषु ।
तज्जल्पवासनामात्रभावि ज्ञानं प्रवर्त्तते ॥ ४२६ ॥

nirālambanamevedamambarāmbhoruhādiṣu |
tajjalpavāsanāmātrabhāvi jñānaṃ pravarttate || 426 ||

The character in question as attributed to the ‘sky-lotus’ is entirely baseless; its idea is there only as the result of one’s eagerness for wrangling.—(426)

Kamalaśīla’s commentary (tattvasaṃgrahapañjikā):

As a matter of fact, the capacity for fruitful activity is not admitted in the ‘sky-lotus’ and such things. The idea of it is merely an outcome of the opponent’s imagination and is utterly baseless.—(426)
