Pearls of the Universe - Volume 9

"If we listen to this Great Nirvana Sutra, we come to know all about the depths of what is said in all the Mahayana Vaipulya Sutras. For example, this is like a mirror in which a man or woman can clearly see the color and shape. It's the same with the Great Nirvana Sutra. The Bodhisattva takes this up and sees clearly through all the depths of things established in the Mahayana Sutras. Also, it’s like someone with a great torch, who is able to see everything in a dark room. It's the same with the torch of the Nirvana Sutra. The Bodhisattva takes this up and reaches the depths of what is said in the Mahayana Sutras. Also, it is like the sun. When it appears, thousands of rays of light shine over the mountains and gloomy places, and men can see clearly what is far and away. It's the same with the pure light of Wisdom of this Great Nirvana. It shines upon all the depths of the Mahayana, enabling those of the two vehicles to see the Buddhist teachings. How? Because they hear the All-Wonderful Doctrine of this Great Nirvana Sutra."
