The Buddhabhūmi-śāstra states: 'The great palace has the three gates of liberation as its points of entrance.' The great palace is a metaphor for the nirvāṇa of emptiness of phenomena. The three gates of liberation refer to the gate of emptiness, the gate of signlessness, and the gate of wishlessness. Present-day monasteries are inhabited by people who uphold precepts, cultivate the Path, and seek to attain nirvāṇa; therefore, they enter through the Three Gates. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.174](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.174) - [Next: 1.176](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.176) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127~en-mt.1.175) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.175](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.175) · Pramāṇa
