Why? Because the formless realm does not take the desire realm as a condition. To cut off such false views of people, he spoke of the four immeasurable minds. Because in the formless realm one also universally takes the sentient beings of the ten directions as conditions through the four immeasurable minds, it is not reiterated that one does not take the formless realm as a condition. Those who speak in this way mostly dwell on conditionality on dharmas and non-conditionality. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6.87) - [Next: 6.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6.89) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.6.88) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大智度論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.prajnaparamita.pancavimsatisahasrika!mahaprajnaparamitopadesa*zh-kumarajiva.20.227) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.6.88) · Pramāṇa
