Turning inexhaustibly, the assembly all rejoices to hear. Adapting the four truths to capacities: "I shall preach frightening matters for them." The three realms are all suffering, and because of suffering fear arises: this is the truth of suffering. Seeking the bliss of nirvāṇa, and because of bliss rejoicing: this is the truth of cessation. Renunciation: the cause of all suffering has craving as its root: this is the truth of origination. Severing doubts: this is the path. Furthermore, in terms of the siddhāntas: the suffering of the three realms is fearful—this is the mundane \[siddhānta\]. Rejoicing is causing good roots to arise for the sake of people, hence rejoicing \[is the individual siddhānta\]. Renunciation is renouncing afflictions, which is the therapeutic \[siddhānta\], matching medicine to disease. Severing doubts is the path of seeing the truths, which is the supreme truth \[siddhānta\]. Such is the power expounded by a single sound. The Tathāgata is fundamentally neither the four truths nor the four siddhāntas; being able to use these teachings to skillfully benefit beings is the secret of speech. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2.77) - [Next: 2.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2.79) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778~en-mt.2.78) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.2.78) · Pramāṇa
