First, it asks about the depth and shallowness; next, the answer explains the desire solely to reveal the One Vehicle, having a proposal, an inquiry, and an explanation. Within the explanation there are six \[parts\]: (1) demonstrating the characteristics of the three and the one; (2) from "if both" downward, inversely presenting what is contrary to reason; (3) from "therefore, prior to the stages" downward, directly answering the objection; (4) from "therefore, empty space" downward, citing scriptural proof; (5) from "therefore, Vajragarbha" downward, concluding the profound depth; and (6) establishing it through texts. Within the fourth, four textual passages are cited as proof: First, the bird's tracks, which is in \[the passage\] demonstrating the delimitations of the expounding. Second, the great ocean, which is in \[the passage on\] the images of the stages. Third, the first roll of the sūtra, which says: "A bodhisattva abiding in one stage completely gathers the virtues of all the stages." Fourth, "within each and every passage," which is distinguished within the expounding section; all are as explained below. The fifth, concluding the depth, is explained below. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 52.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.52.25) - [Next: 52.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.52.27) - [Up: 52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.52) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736~en-mt.52.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.52.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.52.26) · Pramāṇa
