Based on the aforementioned real tathāgatagarbha essence, conditioned arising assembles and produces saṃsāra and nirvāṇa; this is its function. As a sūtra states: "The twelve links of conditioned arising are all created by the one mind." It also states: "The triple realm is created by the one mind." Furthermore, it states: "The dharmakāya, transmigration through the five destinies, is called a sentient being." This is the real giving rise to saṃsāra. Moreover, as in the sūtra: "The tathāgatagarbha nature is manifested as the dharmakāya." Meanings such as these are \[the real\] giving rise to nirvāṇa. The essence and characteristics of non-self are roughly like this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.117](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851.1.117) - [Next: 1.119](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851.1.119) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851~en-mt.1.118) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851.1.118](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1851.1.118) · Pramāṇa
