Suffering arises from delusion; to extinguish suffering, one must first sever delusion. Delusions are light and heavy: the heavy are called views, the light are called doubts. Even doubts must still be severed, how much more so views? Only the Buddha severs doubts; could they not ask? > Sengzong states: Prior to this, he taught only impermanence; now he clarifies the true principle of permanence. The teaching contradicts the past, so as a matter of course there should be doubt. Although the words do not point to it explicitly, the intent lies in this. > Baoliang states: This is the Tathāgata's final, ultimate teaching; hence he encourages them to ask. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.2.30) - [Next: 2.32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.2.32) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763~en-mt.2.31) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.2.31](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1763.2.31) · Pramāṇa
