Musean translation
Mouseia’s complete machine-assisted Musean translation, made directly from the Sanskrit of F. Max Müller’s 1881 Anecdota Oxoniensia edition, all 32 sections, with the printed section numbers kept.
"What do you think, Subhūti? Is there any dharma that the Tathāgata has attained as unsurpassed perfect awakening?" "No, Blessed One, there is none." "So it is, Subhūti, so it is. Not even an atom of that dharma is found or apprehended, and therefore it is called unsurpassed perfect awakening." [22]
