The objection says: 'From the eighth ground upward, one attains effortlessness. When preaching the Dharma, how could there be investigation and analysis?' To resolve this objection, this text is provided. Now, effortlessness has two kinds: inner realization of true reality, and outer initiation of functions. Although the eighth ground is spontaneous in inner realization, it has not yet achieved mastery in outer functions; it is not like the Buddha ground, which is effortless both inwardly and outwardly. Hence, investigation and analysis are present. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.222](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812.1.222) - [Next: 1.224](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812.1.224) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812~en-mt.1.223) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812.1.223](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2812.1.223) · Pramāṇa
