Also as the Sujāta Sūtra states: 'Offering the treasures of the four continents to the Buddha, and praising the Tathāgata with a reverent mind—these two merits are equal and without distinction.' The Great Compassion Sūtra states: 'If one recites the Buddha's name even once, saying "Namo Buddha," by this good root one enters the realm of nirvāṇa, which is inexhaustible.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.54) - [Next: 2.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.56) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896~en-mt.2.55) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.55) · Pramāṇa
