As for princes: being sons and subjects, as sons they must be filial, and as subjects they must be loyal. According with the four capacities and employing the four teachings, he preached for them the four ways of sincerity and filial piety, making them the sons of the four kinds of Dharma Kings. Following the practice of the four teachings is called filial piety; not begrudging body and life to propagate the four teachings is called loyalty, leading all sentient beings to enter the four lands. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.52) - [Next: 3.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.54) - [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.3.53) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [淨名經集解關中疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.256) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.3.53) · Pramāṇa
