【Kṣānti】 Here translated as “Ṛṣi of Forbearance” (Rěnrǔ Xiān). The Record of the Western Regions says: “To the east of the city of Maṅgala, there is a great stūpa; it is the place where the Ṛṣi of Forbearance was dismembered by King Kali.” The Fazhen asks: “The Fuxing quotes this to explain the culmination of the perfection of forbearance according to the Tripiṭaka Teaching; how is this meaning explained in the Vajracchedikā?” Answer: “The dismemberment is the same, but the explanation of forbearance differs according to the Tripiṭaka Teaching and the Mahāyāna Teaching. The Tripiṭaka Teaching refers to subduing afflictions and practicing forbearance in concrete phenomena; the Mahāyāna Teaching refers to severing afflictions and comprehending that phenomena are identical with emptiness. It is just like the Youth Māṇava seeing Dīpaṅkara Buddha, which encompasses the marks of the causes and practices across the Four Teachings.”
