2.43
From "the Great Sūtra" downward: although there is wisdom among the six pāramitās, because on the stages prior to the bhūmis it is not true realization, it belongs to merit; only upon ascending the bhūmis with true realization is it named wisdom. Although what is true includes merit, it is named according to what is superior. This is used to prove that in this text, fulfilling the six pāramitās rests solely within merit. Wisdom among the six is spoken of in terms of prior to the bhūmis, whereas the five pāramitās extend through what is true, and so both belong to merit. Therefore, now merit and wisdom both reside in the partial truth, which is why it says "achieve" and "fulfill."
