1.4

Generally speaking, it refers to the one great matter, as the Lotus Sūtra says: "The Tathāgata appears in the world solely for the causes and conditions of one great matter, that is, to open, disclose, enlighten to, and enter into the vision and knowledge of the Buddha." In explanation, it means the Buddha's intention is to confer upon sentient beings that which he himself has attained as his fundamental intention.
