The purport of the text can be understood. However, the preceding four stages, as well as the passage from the citation of the sūtras down to the subsequent section, precisely correspond to the Yuanjue jing: gradual realization according to stages, and sudden realization through forgetting the mind. Explaining this fully aims to enable sudden awakening and gradual cultivation to naturally form the stages. It is like learning archery: the mind is solely on the bullseye, but the arrows fall near or far. The Śūraṅgama-sūtra also says: 'Principle is suddenly awakened; with that awakening, \[delusions\] are simultaneously eliminated. Phenomena are not suddenly removed; through causes, they are exhausted in sequence.' For this reason, if one did not explain the gradual stages, how would the gradations be known? If one did not explain the sudden gate, in the end it would be difficult to enter. Thus both are fully explained to provide for practice. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10.9) - [Next: 10.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10.11) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.10.10) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.10.10) · Pramāṇa
