191. There is a pun on the term dharma/chos that comes through clearly in the Sanskrit and the Tibetan that translates it, but is lost in English translation. This sentence uses two valences of the term dharma, “phenomena” and “the Dharma.” To capture this pun, the sentence could be rendered, “Bodhisattvas also attain accomplished dhāraṇī, through which they directly reveal all dharmas, revealing the entire expanse of dharmas just as they would a single word of the Dharma.”
