Kāśyapa first asks: "As the Buddha has spoken of ultimate peace and bliss as being named nirvāṇa, what is the meaning of this?" directly requesting its characteristics, requesting that quiescent bliss be manifested. From "now, nirvāṇa" onward, he raises a challenge to refute bliss as a feeling. Below, the Buddha answers him, with four distinct phrases: First, addressing the initial request, manifesting that his nirvāṇa is solely quiescent bliss; second, from "severing all" onward, addressing the later challenge, explaining that his nirvāṇa is not the bliss of feeling; third, from "if one says" onward, raising a challenge to refute bliss as a feeling to confirm the previous second point; fourth, from "therefore" onward, concluding the earlier quiescent bliss to be the meaning of nirvāṇa and liberation. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.15) - [Next: 3.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.17) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764~en-mt.3.16) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [大般涅槃經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.mahaparinirvana-mahayana*zh-t375.5.156) — Classical Chinese - [大般涅槃經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.mahaparinirvana-mahayana*zh-dharmaksema.5.40) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.16) · Pramāṇa
