It is divided into two parts: first, the prose; second, the verses. In the first text, there are two parts: 1. the explanation; 2. the conclusion showing its imminent arrival, which is the verse beginning 'The Tathāgata knows that they have one characteristic and one flavor.' In the first part, there are three: 1. statement through Dharma; 2. statement through parable; 3. statement through synthesis. In the statement through Dharma, there are four: 1. the Buddha's arising in the world; 2. the Dharma benefiting all beings; 3. differences in receiving the Path; 4. inability to understand on one's own. This is the first part. Being sovereign in the Dharma, what he says is not hollow; therefore, he arises in the world to guide and benefit all living beings. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.113](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.7.113) - [Next: 7.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.7.115) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723~en-mt.7.114) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.7.114](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.7.114) · Pramāṇa
