'Bodhisattvas' wisdom and expedients \[reaching\] the other shore': taking true reality as the object is real wisdom; adopting the conventional is expedient means. One explanation says: wisdom taking emptiness and existence as its object, knowing them to be like emptiness, is called real wisdom; knowing without attaching is called expedient means. These two wisdoms are the parents of correct awakening and the essential framework of the myriad practices; by illuminating and attaining their nature, one reaches the other shore. 'Able to cause sentient beings to turn away from birth-and-death and proceed toward nirvāṇa': this is external transformation. Birth-and-death is ultimate suffering; nirvāṇa is ultimate bliss. Causing sentient beings to turn away from suffering and reach bliss is the movement of transformation; both 'path' and 'gate' signify being able to lead through. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754.3.4) - [Next: 3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754.3.6) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754~en-mt.3.5) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754.3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2754.3.5) · Pramāṇa
