| English | Therefore, wherever conceptual elaboration24Tucci 19.14-15: prapañca. D 63b7: tshig concerning such inconceivables is enjoined (in the scriptures), realization of the truth is only through mere hearing and thinking. Those who realize in that way teach that dharmas are to be known each individually (pratyātma) because they are hindered by pride. But one should be aware that while improperly grounded thought is denied, this does not constitute a denial of the discernment of reality. (34) Otherwise (realization) would be thoroughly opposed to reason and scripture, as was already stated. And whatever is known through the wisdom of hearing and thinking is itself to be realized through the wisdom of meditation, nothing else. For example, it is like a horse running along a previously indicated running track. Therefore, the discernment of reality is to be undertaken. |
