The explanation has two meanings: First, one considers that sentient beings are falsely bound by \[the belief in\] existent dharmas and cannot escape; they are deeply pitiable, and therefore one can practice benevolence. Second, one considers that expounding such a Dharma for sentient beings is giving the joy of ultimate truth to others, and therefore it can be called benevolence. And so on for all of them. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3.34) - [Next: 3.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3.36) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776~en-mt.3.35) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [大般涅槃經義記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1764.5.281) — Classical Chinese - [觀無量壽經義疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1749.1.8.2) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.3.35) · Pramāṇa
