Moreover, there is no one who experiences sensation, therefore, in reality, there is no sensation. So who, in this bundle devoid of self, can be afflicted by it?

Recitation by Lopen Karma Phuntsho

If the one arises first, the other after,

Memory occurs and not direct sensation. Sensation is without perception of itself

And likewise, by another it is not perceived.

Something earlier may be remembered By what arises later, but not experienced. [100ab]

It does not experience itself, Nor is it experienced by something other. [100cd]

Brunnhölzl 2004

The Center of the Sunlit Sky

Si la sensation précède la conscience,

Il s’agira d’un souvenir et non d’une expérience. La sensation ne peut pas s’éprouver elle-même

Ni être éprouvée par quelque chose d’autre.

Padmakara France 2007

Bodhicaryâvatâra: La marche vers l'éveil (2007)

Si una surgiese antes que la otra,

podría haber memoria, pero no experiencia directa. La sensación no se percibe a sí misma

y tampoco es percibida por otro.[p.169]La Práctica del Bodisatva

Padmakara Spain 2008

La Práctica del Bodisatva

Although generated earlier and later

It is remembered but not experienced. It does not experience its own nature,

And is also not experienced by others.

Stracke 2016

The Entrance for the Children of the Conquerors

The arising of feeling either earlier or later Can be remembered but not experienced.

Because self can be experienced neither By itself nor by another.

MD: If sensations occur earlier and mind later,

Then sensations are recollected but not experienced. Sensation does not experience itself. Also, sensation is not experienced by something else,

Another consciousness.[p.272]Entering the Way of the Bodhisattvas (2022, Khenpo Gawang and Wiener)
