From "know that the mind stirs falsely" onward refers to cultivation in the stages of the three ranks of worthies. "Knowing that the mind stirs falsely without an objective realm in front of it" is understanding. "Cultivating methods of abandonment" is establishing practice based on understanding, referring to contemplation through investigation and practices such as \[realizing\] representation-only without external dust. The phrase "because they truly know that there is no objective realm" refers to the path of seeing of the first ground, realizing the principle of representation-only; being different from the prior comparative contemplation, it is called "truly knowing." From "through various" down to "the power of long-term perfuming" explains the extensive cultivation of the myriad practices in the path of cultivation of the ten grounds to skillfully reveal tathatā. "Neither grasping" means that the grasped has no mark. "Nor thinking" means that the grasping thought does not arise. "Long-term" means due to perfuming throughout the three \[countless\] kalpas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.108](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.108) - [Next: 3.110](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.110) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846~en-mt.3.109) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.109](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.109) · Pramāṇa
