Contemplating the dust mote as lacking essence, all is completely empty; manifested solely by principle, there is no further differing essence—this is non-differentiation. Furthermore, this nature of principle accords with conditions to form all phenomena without lacking delimitations—this is differentiation. The sūtra says: "All phenomena are without differentiation; / only the Buddha through discrimination knows them, / comprehending differentiated and undifferentiated phenomena, / because they are not apart from principle and phenomena." Thus, differentiation is the myriad existents of pratītyasamutpāda; non-differentiation is the single emptiness of the dharmadhātu. Because emptiness and existence, identity and difference inter-fuse, gathering the myriad existents to become the single emptiness, difference is non-difference; contemplating the single emptiness to form the myriad existents, non-difference is difference. Difference and non-difference manifest in a single realm; if formulated through the four propositions, it can be seen. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.27) - [Next: 1.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.29) - [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.1.28) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.28) · Pramāṇa
