The embodiment gates identify illusory form to access the true, showing people the dharma of non-contention. The distinctive gates bodily extinguish the form of birth and death, and progressively extinguish the form of dharma-nature to access the middle; failing to grasp the intent leads to much contention. The perfect gate identifies the form of birth and death as the form of dharma-nature, accessing the middle through the very form of dharma-nature, showing people the dharma of non-contention. Therefore, the text states, 'the unsurpassed path,' and also states, 'and walking the profound and wondrous path'—this is precisely the meaning. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.2) - [Next: 9.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.4) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716~en-mt.9.3) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1716.9.3) · Pramāṇa
