Because nescience ceases, the defiled moving marks cease, but the mind's essence does not cease—just as when the wind calms, the waves cease, yet the water's essence does not cease; thus the mental classes conjoined with the four wisdoms are all like water. If the mind ceasing meant that sentient beings were severed, \[it is because\] the Tathāgata is called the supreme sentient being; if there were no essence of mind of the four wisdoms to be relied upon, then there would be no nominally designated Tathāgata that can rely upon it. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.123](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850.3.123) - [Next: 3.125](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850.3.125) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850~en-mt.3.124) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850.3.124](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1850.3.124) · Pramāṇa
