Answer: Although it truly has the meanings of these various virtues, there are no marks of differentiation; they are equal and of one taste, solely the one tathatā. What does this mean? Because it is without discrimination and free from the marks of discrimination, therefore it is non-dual." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.178](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.178) - [Next: 3.180](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.180) - [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.3.179) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [大乘法界無差別論疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1838.1.68) — Classical Chinese - [大乘起信論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.yogacara.mahayanasraddhotpadasastra*zh-paramartha.1.37) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.179](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.179) · Pramāṇa
