3.129

"Because their faculties are not yet mature, causing them to mature" is just like the delirious sons not daring to take the medicine, wishing to make them take it. "Manifesting the measure of nirvāṇa" is like the father feigning death because he wants them to take the medicine. The Buddha is now also like this; wishing to make sentient beings understand and awaken, he manifests nirvāṇa.
