Therefore, its essence is called fundamentally existent, while its practice is described as arising from cultivation. Arising is itself non-arising, returning to identity with the fundamental essence; the essence is also not an essence, again equal to what arises from cultivation. How could essence ever obstruct arising, or arising lose essence? Grasping the meaning and forgetting words, a thousand li is but half a step; how could this be spoken of in the same breath with those who are ignorant of the Path! > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.100](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.100) - [Next: 1.102](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.102) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875~en-mt.1.101) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.101](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.101) · Pramāṇa
