4.36

If the past Mahāyāna's clarification of conferring prophecies on bodhisattvas to become Buddhas was indeed the real teaching, and yet śrāvakas relied on sūtras such as the Prajñā[pāramitā] to soften and tame their minds, and only afterward were able to awaken and enter into the Lotus [Sūtra], then one knows that the Prajñā[pāramitā] is an upāya for the Lotus [Sūtra]; how could it be the real teaching?
