1.53

"This stage of cultivation is able to serve as a support..." and so forth: the stage of cultivation has as its essence the conditioned correct wisdom capable of realizing and the unconditioned true principle that is realized. This truth and wisdom, in relation to the practices cultivated such as giving: first, serve as their support; second, cause them to grow. Just as the great earth serves as a support for all things and enables them to grow, so the phenomenon takes its name 'bhūmi' (ground) from the metaphor.
