“We say that we should base
ourselves on receiving and embracing
the sutras [those which plumb the depths of the true spirit of the
Buddha-Dharma], and not on the non-receiving and embracing the sutras. The non-receiving
and embracing the sutras are the vehicle of Sravaka (Listener). Even listening
to the deep and hidden storehouse of Buddha-Tathagata, doubts arise in their minds
regarding all things and the person does not realize that this storehouse arises
from the sea of
Great Wisdom, as in the case of a child who cannot distinguish one thing from another.
This is the not-apprehension of the meaning. The attainment of the meaning is nothing
more than the True Wisdom of the Bodhisattva. It flows forth from the unobstruction
of the Great Wisdom of his mind, as with an adult, for whom there is nothing
that is not known. This is the attainment of the meaning.”
