1.74

On "three truths and three objects": The Great Calming and Contemplation explains that the nature of principle is one; in contrast to calming it is called truth, and in contrast to contemplation it is called object. What the various texts explain is that truth is itself the object, and they do not speak of the two as distinct. The present text is also the same. Why is this so? Because the various texts only speak of the three contemplations and do not discuss three calmings. Furthermore, it is only in the practice gates of calming and contemplation that this is shown in detail.
