### [1.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.1.14)

七開發故者，為欲開發眾生心中如來之藏性起功德，令諸菩薩依此修學，破無明㲉顯性德故。此亦有二種：一以言說顯示，令知有故；二教其修行，得顯現故。如下文「破微塵出經卷」等，具如彼說。

> Seventh, because it unfolds and discloses: to unfold and disclose the virtues of the nature manifestation of the tathāgatagarbha within the minds of sentient beings, leading the bodhisattvas to cultivate and study in reliance upon this, shattering the shell of ignorance and revealing the virtues of their nature. In this there are also two kinds: first, by verbal demonstration, causing them to know that it exists; second, by teaching them cultivation, causing it to become manifested. This is just like the passage below on 'shattering a speck of dust to take out a scroll of scripture,' and so forth, fully as explained there.
