First are those whose cultivation of faith is fulfilled; for them, the marks of setting forth on the path are explained so as to cause them to enter the stage of definite assurance—these are the superior persons mentioned earlier. Second are those whose cultivation of faith is not yet fulfilled; these are the inferior persons mentioned earlier, who are the target of this text. By means of the four faiths and the five practices, it causes them to cultivate, bringing their faith to fulfillment. Once their faith is fulfilled, they then rely on setting forth to enter the stage of definite assurance. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.394](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.394) - [Next: 3.396](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.396) - [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.3.395) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.395](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.395) · Pramāṇa
