Therefore the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā says: 'Prajñā can demonstrate worldly characteristics.' That is, demonstrating 'what is the path' and 'what is not the path'; this is to deeply recognize the suffering and origination of the mind of views. What is still deeper: not only knowing the suffering and origination of ignorance, but also recognizing the cause and effect of the Tripiṭaka \[teaching\], and also recognizing that phenomena produced by causes and conditions are empty—the cause and effect of the four noble truths \[of the shared teaching\]. What is even deeper: also knowing that causes and conditions are provisional—the cause and effect of the immeasurable four noble truths \[of the distinctive teaching\]. What is yet deeper: also knowing that causes and conditions are the middle—the cause and effect of the unconditioned four noble truths \[of the perfect teaching\]. Within a single mind of views, one completely recognizes all causes and effects. Therefore the Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra says: 'In a single thought-moment one can weigh immeasurable birth and death; this is called inconceivable.' Therefore it is called deep faith, shattering lack of faith. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.4.77) - [Next: 4.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.4.79) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911~en-mt.4.78) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.4.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.4.78) · Pramāṇa
