Question: As in the previous discussion of the third, 'that which is perfumed', Dharmapāla challenged Aśvaghoṣa's principle of tathatā receiving perfuming. As for the meaning of perfuming, it perfumes characteristics, not the nature, just as fire burns the world but does not burn empty space. How is this meaning of tathatā receiving perfuming to be reconciled and harmonized?
