"Generosity is the bodhimaṇḍa, because one expects no recompense." The following sixteen items explain dwelling in the true bodhimaṇḍa of the true mark with reference to practices. These practices all attain the utmost. Sengzhao states: Generosity without expecting recompense is signless practice. Indeed, to speak of existence without missing anything, and to speak of non-existence without missing anything—having different explanations of existence and non-existence without contradicting the fundamental source—can this not be found solely in the Great Vehicle? Thus, although the myriad practices are distinct, they take signlessness as their essence. Because non-existence is not simply non-existence, existence is true existence; because existence is not simply existence, generosity and morality are one. When this sūtra throughout distinguishes and enumerates the myriad practices, their existence and non-existence differ; if one can grasp that in which they are identical, then there is no difference that is not unified.
