There are three kinds of sūtras: either the text is the sūtra, or the principle is the sūtra, or the text and principle combined are the sūtra. Masters of the Daśabhūmika School state: for people prior to the thirty minds, the text is the sūtra; for the thirty minds, text and principle combined are the sūtra; from the first bhūmi onward, they use the principle as the sūtra. Now I explain that through the condition of text and principle, it is a sūtra, because one awakens to the Way through the text. Because it can express it, the text is the sūtra. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699.1.14) - [Next: 1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699.1.16) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699~en-mt.1.15) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699.1.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1699.1.15) · Pramāṇa
