Therein, it first generally explains the general idea, and next specifically explains the gate of the objective realm. Regarding the first passage: the elder had previously already attained exit safely and peacefully; although peaceful, he was alarmed; although exited, he had to enter. Only then is it known that the Tathāgata constantly abides in great compassion, peacefully dwelling in nirvāṇa without departing from the three realms; therefore, attaining exit safely and peacefully is used to explain the alarm and terror. Seeing that the children had great resolve was like having long attained peace and safety; because they retreated and fell into suffering, he further gave rise to small compassion, as if initially alarmed and terrified; since peace and safety did not last long, it is called 'although'. From 'Yet sentient beings' downward explains the reason for alarm and terror: because they were not yet in the same peace and safety as their father. From 'The Tathāgata' downward clarifies the reason for entering the fire: because of small compassion. The children having already fallen into suffering, peace and safety are explained from the locus of the children's suffering; hence it says 'not being affected by the eight sufferings, the four inversions', and so forth. Therefore, although the term 'buddha-wisdom' pervades the fundamental and real, it provisionally separates the provisional traces to serve as the correct teaching; hence the subsequent explanation of the gate is explained from the perspective of expressing the Small. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719.6.37) - [Next: 6.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719.6.39) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719~en-mt.6.38) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719.6.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1719.6.38) · Pramāṇa
