2.66

From "Why is this?" onwards is the second [part], singly praising the expedient knowledge of Śākya[muni]. In explaining why Śākya[muni] has this expedient knowledge and is able to speak the Dharma through such various causes, conditions, and parables, what is the reason? It is precisely because the Tathāgata's pāramitā of expedient knowledge and vision is already fully perfected. In foreign languages it is called pāramitā; here it means having reached the other shore. The Tathāgata's wisdom profoundly discerns the capacities of beings and has reached the other shore; therefore he possesses this skilful wisdom.
