Some say: The four means of embracing are the practices of the Buddha, the Guide, for gathering and transforming \[beings\]; the Buddha abides in this practice and can open the eyes of worldly people so that they see the correct path, hence he is named the Eye of the World. This too is incorrect. Although the practice of the four means of embracing transforms beings, it does not carry the meaning of an eye. Now, the five eyes are named the practice of the Guide, because the Buddha abides in the five eyes to guide sentient beings, with none superior to him. It explains the meaning of the Eye of the World by means of the practice of the Guide. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.37) - [Next: 2.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.39) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748~en-mt.2.38) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1748.2.38) · Pramāṇa
