"What is the Undisclosed Storehouse? It's like the three dots of the letter 'i' [in Sanskrit]. If they are in a crosswise line, they form no 'i'. Placed vertically, they also have no purpose. But when one puts the three dots on the brow of the Mahesvara (Great Lord), this is 'i'. If the three dots are written separately, this again has no purpose. So, too, it is with me. The Dharma of emancipation is also [by itself] not-Nirvana. The body of the Tathagata is also not-Nirvana. The Great Wisdom is also not-Nirvana. The three things may exist separately, but this does not constitute Nirvana. Now, I peacefully abide in the three and say that, for the sake of all beings, I enter Nirvana. This is as in the case of the letter 'i'."
