Having no realization and no attainment, it is not an object of offering; yet its virtue permeates boundlessly, so it is not unworthy of offering. To grasp it is to lose the true; to renounce it is to deviate from the Dao. How could there be characteristics to be seen, or non-characteristics to be negated? It is identical with the reality limit, equal to the dharma nature, and transcends the realm of praise and measurement! > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.449](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.449) - [Next: 2.451](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.451) - [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.2.450) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [維摩詰所說經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.vimalakirtinirdesa*zh-kumarajiva.3.56) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.450](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.2.450) · Pramāṇa
