From the Parable of the Burning House to the end of the sūtra, it specifically breaks the afflictions of ten kinds of people." Next, it clarifies the ten kinds of unexcelled meanings. With respect to the text, there are two parts: first, breaking the afflictions of ten kinds of people; next, clarifying the ten kinds of unexcelled \[meanings\]. The first also has two parts: first, it lists the exhortation to understand the counteractions and what is to be counteracted for the seven kinds of ordinary beings; next, it clarifies the exhortation to understand the counteractions and what is to be counteracted for noble beings without defilements. With respect to the first, there are again four parts: 1. identifying the persons for whose sake it is taught; 2. clarifying the counteractions; 3. distinguishing what is to be counteracted; 4. exhorting to understand. As for "sentient beings endowed with defilements and of an impure nature," this clarifies the persons for whose sake it is taught. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818.3.40) - [Next: 3.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818.3.42) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818~en-mt.3.41) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818.3.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1818.3.41) · Pramāṇa
