This attests to the gradual. It also says: "If they do not believe this Dharma, then among other profound Dharmas one demonstrates it, instructs them, and brings them benefit and joy." This attests to the indeterminate. It also says: "Directly discarding expedient means, one expounds only the unsurpassed path." This attests to the sudden. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.1.22) - [Next: 1.24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.1.24) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911~en-mt.1.23) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.1.23) · Pramāṇa
