The Bodhisattva Manjushri said to the Buddha: "Oh World Honored One! What means the real truth? "
The Buddha said: "Oh good man! By 'real truth' is meant the Wonderful Dharma. Oh good man! If something is not true, we do not say 'real truth'. Oh good man! There is nothing inverted in the real truth. When there is nothing inverted, we say ‘real truth’. Oh good man! There is no falsehood in the real truth. If the falsehood resides [there], we do not speak of real truth. Oh good man! The real truth is the Mahayana. If not the Mahayana, we do not say 'real truth'. The ‘real truth’ is what the Buddha says, and not what Mara says. If is of Mara and not of the Buddha, we do not say 'real truth'. Oh good man! The ‘real truth’ is a pure and single path, and not two paths. Oh good man! That which is Eternal, Bliss, Self, and Pure is the ‘real truth’."
