4.50

Furthermore, destroying the twenty-five realms of existence means that existence contains the fruits. Because existence is destroyed, the truth of origination is destroyed; because the fruits are destroyed, the truth of suffering is destroyed. Attaining the twenty-five samādhis establishes the truth of the path. Seeing the nature of self in the twenty-five realms of existence—and this nature of self being the buddha-nature—establishes the truth of cessation. Destroying the twenty-five realms of existence leaves no defilements, which is the virtue of purity; destroying the fruits of the twenty-five realms of existence leaves no suffering, which is the virtue of permanence; attaining the twenty-five samādhis is bliss; and seeing the nature of self in the twenty-five realms of existence is self. The four virtues are fully present.
