Precious Garland 103. Thus neither self nor non-self Are to be apprehended as real. Therefore the Great Subduer rejected Views of self and of non-self. |

Entering The Middle Way If a thing produces an effect, it is indeed a cause on that account; if no effect is produced, with this absence, there can be no cause. Yet effects too come to arise when there is the cause. So tell me what comes from what, and what precedes what? 6.168 [Page 472] |

Sixty Stanzas of Reasoning 30. To seekers of reality, at first You should declare, “Everything exists!” Once they understand things and grow detached, Then [you may teach] them freedom. 56. Those who cherish beauty become attached; Those who turn away from it become detached. But those who see it as empty, Like an illusory person, reach nirvana. |
