That is to say, from the beginning, form and mind have been non-dual. Because the nature of form is precisely cognition, the substance of form has no shape, and is named the cognition-body (jñānakāya); because the nature of cognition is precisely form, the dharmakāya is said to pervade all places.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.237](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.237) - [Next: 3.239](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.239) - [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.3.238) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.238](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.238) · Pramāṇa
