Having nothing to hear does not mean not listening, but being able to be free from that which is heard. Because one is free from what is expounded, though one expounds all day, one has never expounded. Because one is free from what is heard, though one listens all day, one has never heard. 'Demonstrate' means expounding the Dharma to show it to people. 'Attain' means what is gained from hearing the Dharma. \[Dao\]sheng says: Since the Dharma is as stated before, how could there be anything to expound? If this \[speaker\] has nothing to expound, how could that \[listener\] have anything to hear or attain? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.305](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2.305) - [Next: 2.307](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2.307) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.2.306) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [淨名經集解關中疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.352) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2.306](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.2.306) · Pramāṇa
