2.71

Question: Since it is not truth from perspective, what can it be? Explanation: It can be truth as teaching. The Buddhas and bodhisattvas manifest traces, display bodies, and expound teachings from the skillful means of reality; what they manifest does not exceed form and sound, and so form, sound, and the like are all truth as teaching. Why? These two kinds are both true. Because they match the capacities and conditions without discrepancy, they are therefore named truth. Because these two kinds can truly express the Way, they are therefore named truth.
