Repressing causes them to be aroused and courageous; guiding causes them to advance swiftly. From "Did I not previously say" downwards, pointing to the above explanation that expedients are all for bodhi, and pointing to the above revelation of the real that all is for transforming bodhisattvas: whether expedient or real, all enter the Buddha path and non-abiding nirvāṇa. Having already clearly stated this above, why cling to the teaching and remain blindly confused without understanding? Such a rebuke is the text of repressing. From "However, Śāriputra, now you shall" downwards is the guiding and comforting. The previous reprimand having been severe, fearing they would sink into self-contempt and resentment, he now promises to clarify this principle further through a parable; if they can understand, it may still be called wisdom. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.5.45) - [Next: 5.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.5.47) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718~en-mt.5.46) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.5.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.5.46) · Pramāṇa
