Answer: The liberation of true nature is universally the essence of all sūtras; how could it not be proximate to being the essence of this sūtra? It is simply that it is not yet manifested in the text of the "Buddha-land Chapter"; downstream, it is explicitly expounded in place after place, and none of this is at odds with what was previously expounded. Therefore, it may serve as the essence of this sūtra. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.3) - [Next: 3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.5) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778~en-mt.3.4) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.4) · Pramāṇa
