The conception of dharmas is an illness with respect to emptiness, but a medicine with respect to the self. As the higher and lower wear each other away, he therefore borrows it as a remedy. \[Dao\]sheng says: Why eliminate it? He teaches the raising of the conception of dharmas. Raising the conception of dharmas does not mean becoming attached to dharmas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.167](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5.167) - [Next: 5.169](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5.169) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.5.168) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [淨名經集解關中疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.61) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5.168](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5.168) · Pramāṇa
