ʰپśٰܳ (प्रतिश्रुत्क�, “echo�) (Cf. Pratiśruta) refers to an “echo (in the midst of the mountains)� and represents one of the ten comparisons (ܱ貹Բ) according to the 2nd century Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra chapter 11. These ܱ貹Բs represent a quality of the Bodhisattvas accompanying the Buddha at Ჹṛh on the ṛdūṭa貹ٲ. They accepted that dharmas are like an echo (پśٰܳ). In a narrow valley, a deep gorge or an empty house, when a sound (ś岹) or a noise is made, from this sound that is produced another sound arises that is called an echo. The ignorant person thinks that there is somebody who is repeating his words, but the wise person knows that the echo is not due to a third person and that it is solely by a reverberation of the sound (ś岹sparśa) that there is a new sound called an echo.

ʰپśٰܳ (प्रतिश्रुत्क�) refers to an “echo�, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly: “[...] Gaganagañja said: ‘Quite so, son of good family. Just as an echo (پśٰܳ) does not really exist and it is merely the perception of sounds, in the same way, [the sound of the dharma coming from] open space does not really exist and it is also the perception of sounds�. Kutūhalajāta said: ‘Son of good family, who perceives this sound? Where is this sound coming from?� Gaganagañja said: ‘Son of good family, the recognition of knowledge is incomprehensible. We think that it is coming from this open space because of the reflection of our mind. Even though it is neither going nor coming, the resonance of sound still arises’�.
