Since the five periods are already untenable, the four tenets naturally fall away. Furthermore, Bodhiruci—translated here as Daoxi—himself translated the Daśabhūmikā-śāstra and explained only the half-word and full-word \[teachings\]. Bodhiruci is the patriarch of the Dilun tradition, so we know that the half-word and full-word teachings have a basis; whereas relying on the four tenets has no root. Yet they arbitrarily place deep faith in them, not discerning the reason for this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.3.35) - [Next: 3.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.3.37) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720~en-mt.3.36) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.3.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.3.36) · Pramāṇa
