"Śāriputra, passing away is the characteristic of disintegration of false and deceptive dharmas; being born is the characteristic of continuation of false and deceptive dharmas. Although a bodhisattva passes away, he does not exhaust the roots of good; although he is born, he does not increase evils." / Third, explaining. Falsely clinging to the illusory and deceptive, there is passing away and being born; awakening to the reality of dharmas, there is no birth and no cessation. Illusory cessation is not cessation, so roots of good are not exhausted; illusory birth is not birth, so he does not crave birth or increase evils. This is why revealing the awakening to non-birth and non-cessation within birth and cessation establishes the meaning of the dharmakāya.
