6.7
Answer: Above referred to the truth of biased reality; here, we rely on the Great Nirvāṇa Sūtra to clarify the real truth. The real truth is precisely the inconceivable perfect reality; the dharma-nature of perfect reality is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is free of the eight inversions; being free of the eight inversions is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is without falsehood; being without falsehood is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is precisely the Great Vehicle; the Great Vehicle is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is not the eight Māras; not being the eight Māras is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is the purity of the single path; the purity of the single path is precisely the liberation of true nature. The liberation of true nature is permanence, bliss, self, and purity; permanence, bliss, self, and purity are precisely the inconceivable liberation of true nature. The inconceivable liberation of true nature is precisely the proper substance of this sūtra. How could such a true nature be identical to biased reality?!
