2.161

[Treatise:] Answer: ... free from conceptions and thoughts. [Commentary:] In the answer below there are three parts: first, establishing the principle on the basis of mind; next, raising what is wrong to reveal the fault; afterwards, raising what is right to display the virtue. This is the first. Although all realms are boundless, based fundamentally on the Tathāgata, all are transformations of one's own mind and there are no separate realms. That which is conceived and thought does not generate mind apart from the realms. If the mind is free from thought, it accords with and realizes the mind-source; how could it fail to understand the realms that are just mind?
