English version Firstly, there is the limited path; secondly, there is the limitless path. The limited path refers to grasping at appearances and making distinctions, while the limitless path refers to not grasping at appearances and making distinctions. 'Furthermore, there are two kinds of abbreviated paths. What are the two? Firstly, the path of wisdom; secondly, the path of severance. The path of wisdom refers to the stages from the first Bhumi (भूमि, the first stage of a Bodhisattva's path) up to the seventh Bhumi, while the path of severance refers to the stages from the eighth Bhumi up to the tenth Bhumi.' At that time, in the assembly, there was a Bodhisattva-Mahasattva (महानसत्त्व, Great Being) named Yongsuxing Zhi, who asked Manjushri (मञ्जुश्री, embodiment of wisdom), the Dharma Prince, saying: 'What is the meaning of Bodhisattva-Mahasattva? What is the wisdom of Bodhisattva-Mahasattva?' Manjushri replied, 'Good man! The name 'meaning' is not corresponding, the name 'wisdom' is corresponding.' The Bodhisattva Yongsuxing Zhi said, 'Manjushri! What is meant by the name 'meaning' not corresponding? What is meant by the name 'wisdom' corresponding?' Manjushri said, 'Good man! The name 'meaning' is unconditioned (असंस्कृत, not created or dependent on causes), and this 'meaning' has no dharma that is jointly corresponding, and no dharma that is not jointly corresponding. Why? Because it has no change and no appearance. This 'meaning' has no dharma that is jointly corresponding, and no dharma that is not jointly corresponding, because it originally does not accomplish 'meaning', therefore there is no dharma that is jointly corresponding, and no dharma that is not jointly corresponding. 'Meaning' neither shifts nor increases, and has no dharma that is jointly corresponding, and no dharma that is not jointly corresponding. Good man! The name 'wisdom' is the path! The path is jointly corresponding with the mind, not not corresponding. Good man! Because of this reason, the name 'wisdom' is corresponding, not not corresponding.' 'Furthermore, good man! The name 'wisdom' is corresponding with severance. Therefore, good man! The name 'wisdom' is a corresponding dharma, not a non-corresponding dharma.' 'Furthermore, good man! The name 'wisdom' is skillful at observing the five Skandhas (पञ्च स्कन्ध, the five aggregates of existence: form, feeling, perception, volition, consciousness), the twelve Ayatanas (द्वादश आयतन, the twelve sense bases), the eighteen Dhatus (अष्टादश धातु, the eighteen realms), the twelve Nidanas (द्वादशाङ्गिक प्रतीत्यसमुत्पाद, the twelve links of dependent origination), what is the proper place and what is not the proper place. Good man! Because of this reason, the name 'wisdom' is corresponding, not not corresponding.' 'Furthermore, good man! The Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas have ten kinds of wisdom. What are the ten? Firstly, the wisdom of cause; secondly, the wisdom of effect; thirdly, the wisdom of meaning; fourthly, the wisdom of expedient means; fifth --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
