Answer: In discussing the profound purport, teaching arises from contemplation, like crushing a minute atom to produce a scroll of sūtras of a trichiliocosm. In entering the text to annotate and explain, one enters principle from worldly phenomena; therefore, one must first use the four teachings to analyze and explain the sūtra text. In following the text to enter principle, one must rely on contemplative practice; therefore, one next points out the chapter headings of the threefold contemplation: not a single chapter, single verse, or single phrase fails to enter the non-dual Dharma gate and abide in inconceivable liberation. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.1.89) - [Next: 1.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.1.91) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778~en-mt.1.90) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.1.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.1.90) · Pramāṇa
