The Mahāprajñāpāramitā-sūtra says: "Śrāvakas practice the path relying on the four stations of mindfulness (smṛtyupasthāna); bodhisattvas begin by contemplating form up to the knowledge of all aspects (sarvākārajñatā)." Every chapter is like this, so it does not contradict the sūtras. Furthermore, when a practitioner takes on a body, who does not have the heavy burden of the aggregates and sense fields present before them? Therefore, they are contemplated first. The subsequent arising of different signs is distinguished sequentially. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.5.5) - [Next: 5.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.5.7) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911~en-mt.5.6) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.5.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.5.6) · Pramāṇa
