[38] Tathâgata.

[40] Avatamsaka Sûtra.—This text is also from a Zen sotoba.

[41] From a tombstone of the Jōdo sect. The text is evidently from the Chinese version of the Amitâyur-Dhyâna-Sûtra (see Buddhist Mahâyâna Texts: “Sacred Books of the East”). It reads in the English version thus:—“In fine, it is your mind that becomes Buddha;—nay, it is your mind that is indeed Buddha.”

[42] Pratyeka-Buddha sastra?—From a sotoba of the Zen sect.

[43] San-zé, or mitsu-yo,—the Past, Present, and Future.

[45] Krityânushthâna-gñâna.—The text is from a sotoba of the Shingon sect.

[46] More literally, “Self and Other:” i. e., the Ego and the Non-Ego in the meaning of “I” and “Thou.” There is no “I” and “Thou” in Buddhahood.—This text was copied from a Zen sotoba.
