It is also said that when children have needs, they consult their parents; when a bodhisattva has needs, they seek them from the six pāramitās. Taking their bountiful benefit, they are compared to father and mother. \[Seng\]zhao says: The practice of the remaining four pāramitās becomes progressively deeper, and they are that from which the dharmakāya is born; therefore they are regarded as parents. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.147](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.147) - [Next: 9.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.149) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.9.148) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.148](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.148) · Pramāṇa
