A bodhisattva enters saṃsāra for the sake of sentient beings; where there is saṃsāra, there is illness. If sentient beings are able to be freed from illness, then the bodhisattva will have no more illness'"—this is the explanation. Sengzhao says: "The dharmakāya is without birth, how much less could it have a physical form? Since it has no form, from what cause could illness arise? Yet taking birth for their sake, he cannot be without form; having a form, he cannot be without affliction. Therefore, in accordance with the duration \[of their illness\], he shares the same illness with them. If they are freed from illness, the bodhisattva will have no more illness." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.21) - [Next: 2.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.23) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777~en-mt.2.22) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [注維摩詰經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.5.61) — Classical Chinese - [維摩經略疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1778.7.13) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.22) · Pramāṇa
