1.23

"There is a dharma" points to the mind of all sentient beings, which is explicated in the text below. Explaining the aspect of tathatā of this mind shows the essence of the Mahāyāna; explaining the aspect of the causes and conditions of arising and ceasing of this mind can reveal the essence, attributes, and function of the Mahāyāna. Causing sentient beings to give rise to the three wisdoms of hearing, reflecting, and cultivating, up to definitively becoming Buddhas, is named "the faculty of faith in the Mahāyāna." Because it has this supreme benefit, it should be explained.
