4.39

The questioner says: "If demanding the small results in giving the great, could demanding the great also result in giving the small?" The commentator says: "The nature of phenomena is not like that. Why? If there is no distinction, the three small are simply the one great. Now, the giving of the great is due to the arousal of the capacity for the Great Vehicle; therefore, converging the former three small completes the present one great. Thus today giving the great is logically justifiable."
