Regarding 'Because it relies on the upāya teaching gate of the three vehicles, heights and depths are not uniform,' and so forth: If in terms of the upāya practice of the three vehicles, then gradation of cause and effect has differing heights and depths. If relying on the true intention of the One Vehicle, then cause and effect are perfectly interfused, and the virtuous functions of dharmatā are solely in the Middle Way, hence it says 'there is no before and after.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.147](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b.1.147) - [Next: 1.149](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b.1.149) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b~en-mt.1.148) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b.1.148](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1887b.1.148) · Pramāṇa
