勝鬘寶窟 2.34

2.34

Fifth is the section explaining the mark of the ekayāna. The fourth fascicle of the Laṅkāvatāra-sūtra states: 'What is the mark of the ekayāna? It means that because one truly awakens to and knows the path of the ekayāna, one does not conceptualize the spheres of grasper and grasped, and does not give rise to abiding in the marks of such dharmas. Because one does not conceptualize any dharmas, it is called the mark of the path of the ekayāna.' This is the mark of the ekayāna wherein internal and external are both obscured, and conditions and contemplation are both tranquil. This then obliterates the preceding section on the essence: namely, it is neither cause nor fruit, down to being neither wisdom nor ignorance; only this is the true essence of the ekayāna and the wondrous mark of the ekayāna.
