[Regarding] resolving the doubt: The intention of the sūtra is: if one abides in dharmas while practicing giving, then one will not attain tathatā, just like entering into the dark seeing nothing at all. If one practices giving without abiding, then one attains tathatā, just like the sun rising into the sky—what would it not illuminate? Although tathatā is omnipresent, attainment and loss depend on the person; the principle is completely clear, so what confusion could there ultimately be?
