Chính do thể nhập thực tại vô ngã mà Bồ-tát xứng danh là Bồ-tát; chính sự thể nhập đó là ý nghĩa “làm trang nghiêm cõi Phật”, và là khả năng dẫn dắt chúng sanh đến Niết-bàn.

  18b. The Lord said: What do you think, Subhuti, has the Tathagata used the phrase, “as many grains of sand as there are in the great river Ganges? - Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord, so it is, O Well-Gone! The Tathagaia has done so. The Lord asked: What do you think, Subhuti, if there were as many Ganges rivers as there are grains of sand in the great river Ganges, and if there were as many world systems as there are grains of sand in the great river Gangcs, and if there were as many world systems as there are grains of sand in them, would these world systems be many? - Subhuti replied: So it is, o Lord, so it is, o Well-Gone, those world systems would be many. The Lord said: As many beings as there are in these world systems, of them I know, in my wisdom the manifold trends of thought”. And why? “Trends of thought, trends of thought”, Subhuti, as no-trends have they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore  are they called “trends of thought”. And why? Past thought is not got at; future thought is not got at; present thougbt is not got at.
