This is Asaṅga's syllogism establishing that all can be liberated. The syllogism should be framed as: 'Three-and-a-half portions of sentient beings' is the subject (dharmin); 'definitely will all attain Buddhahood' is the thesis (pratijñā). The reason (hetu) is: 'Because they are subsumed under sentient beings.' The concordant example (dṛṣṭānta): 'The one-and-a-half portions of sentient beings.' The intention is that the Nirvāṇa Sūtra states: 'Whoever has a mind will definitely become a Buddha.' The Sūtra of Perfect Enlightenment states: 'Those with nature and those without nature equally achieve the Buddha Way.' This, then, is the sense of being obtainable; how could one say they cannot attain it? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.4.46) - [Next: 4.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.4.48) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702~en-mt.4.47) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.4.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1702.4.47) · Pramāṇa
