In the harm: 'if one cultivates the Tathāgata's hidden garbha as non-self and empty and tranquil' recapitulates the aforementioned delusion; grasping that principle of emptiness as the tathāgatagarbha is called cultivating the hidden garbha as non-self and empty. 'For immeasurable eons transmigrating and undergoing suffering in birth and death' directly clarifies that there is harm; grasping emptiness and slandering reality leads to being in birth and death, which is called undergoing various sufferings. In the benefit: 'if one does not do so' recapitulates the aforementioned awakening; turning away from emptiness to seek the real is called 'not doing so'; 'if there is affliction, it is quickly eliminated' directly clarifies that there is benefit. The explanation begins from 'Why?': because by knowing the garbha, one thoroughly realizes that delusion is originally non-existent, and therefore quickly eliminates affliction. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.255](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.255) - [Next: 3.257](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.257) - [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.3.256) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.256](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.3.256) · Pramāṇa
