Practicing merit and wisdom as causes, at the fruition one accomplishes the two virtues of wisdom and elimination; these virtues are non-dual in essence with sentient beings. Therefore, invoking the personal name of Avalokiteśvara's wisdom virtue can manifest and evoke the original nature's revealing cause seed; thus it can eliminate the suffering of dark delusion. If matching the responsive body of the Universal Gate's virtue of elimination, it can arouse the original nature's conditional cause seed; thus one obtains the joy of cause and fruition. Were it not so, how could it be called the interaction of stimulus and response? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727.2.24) - [Next: 2.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727.2.26) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727~en-mt.2.25) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727.2.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1727.2.25) · Pramāṇa
