91.18

Question: All realms of objects are differentiated due to the mind. If there is differentiation, it belongs to avidyā. Hence it is said: 'When there is no mind to differentiate, all dharmas are correct; when there is a mind to differentiate, all dharmas are perverse.' The Buddhas, the Tathāgatas, have already severed avidyā and have no mental characteristics. How can they know the realms of differences between the absolute and the conventional, and be termed [possessors of] sarvākārajñatā?
