Although each stage has its various sublime merits, if one does not take the realization of reality as the guide and cultivate with non-attachment, there will be hindrances at stage after stage, thereby going against the function of a wheel. Now, because the practitioner skillfully cultivates the realization of reality with non-attachment, they can turn from the initial mind all the way to the ultimate fruit, and the function of the wheel is then accomplished. Therefore, the Lotus Sūtra says: "Sentient beings are attached everywhere; I lead them to emerge." One should know that if practitioners skillfully cultivate the gate of cessation, they will be able to fully possess the dhyāna-concentrations of the five wheels and realize the noble fruits of the three vehicles. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.44) - [Next: 3.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.46) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.3.45) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.45) · Pramāṇa
