Why? Because the Buddha has attained the true characteristic of all dharmas, the merit of making offerings is inexhaustible; and because the transformation Buddha is also not separate from the true characteristic. If the one who makes offerings can maintain an undivided mind, the merit is also equal.' - [Previous: 89.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.89.18) - [Next: 89.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.89.20) - [Up: 89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.89) ## Linked texts (1) - [宗鏡錄](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.89.19) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.89.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.89.19) · Pramāṇa
