'Nirvāṇa' is the principle of non-arising and non-ceasing. The Buddha and sentient beings equally possess this principle; there is not even birth-and-death to sever, so how could there be a nirvāṇa to realize? Hence it says: 'In all things there is no nirvāṇa.' However, realizing through non-realization, one realizes this nirvāṇa; thus the Buddha is the person capable of realization and nirvāṇa is the dharma that is realized. Apart from the dharma there is no person, so it says: 'There is no nirvāṇa Buddha.' Apart from the person there is no dharma, so it says: 'Nor is there a Buddha's nirvāṇa.' The Ru lengqie jing states: 'The Buddha does not abide in nirvāṇa; nirvāṇa does not abide in the Buddha.' The words differ, but the meaning is identical. 'Awakening' is the Buddha; 'that which is awakened' is nirvāṇa. Person and dharma are both obliterated, so it says: 'Far removed from awakening and that which is awakened.' However, with person and dharma both obliterated, existence has been negated but nonexistence has not yet been negated; hence it says: 'Whether existent or nonexistent, both of these two are completely abandoned.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789.1.21) - [Next: 1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789.1.23) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789~en-mt.1.22) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [འཕགས་པ་ལང་ཀར་གཤེགས་པའི་ཐེག་པ་ཆེན་པོའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.lankavatara*bo.1.17) — Classical Tibetan - [འཕགས་པ་ལང་ཀར་གཤེགས་པ་རིན་པོ་ཆེའི་མདོ་ལས་སངས་རྒྱས་ཐམས་ཅད་ཀྱི་གསུང་གི་སྙིང་པོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བའི་ལེའུ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.lankavatara*bo-d108.1.2) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789.1.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1789.1.22) · Pramāṇa
