SOURCE TEXT
The main topic of this sūtra is an explanation of how the Buddha and all things share the very same empty nature. Through a set of similes, the sūtra shows how an illusion-like Buddha may dispense appropriate teachings to sentient beings in accordance with their propensities. His activities are effortless since his realization is free from concepts. Thus, the Tathāgata’s non-conceptual awareness results in great compassion beyond any reference point.

Relevance to Buddha-nature
One of the sūtra sources referenced several times in the Uttaratantra.

Description from When the Clouds Part
This sūtra is quoted several times in RGVV.[1] In its comments on one of these quotes (the Tathāgata’s seeing the dhātu of sentient beings, which is pure, stainless, and without afflictions), RGVV explicitly equates the tathāgata heart with the dhātu of sentient beings.[2] The sūtra also says that the Tathāgata’s own purity and the purity of sentient beings are not two and cannot be made two (similar statements are frequently found in the prajñāpāramitā sūtras). In addition, the nine examples for enlightened activity in the Uttaratantra come from this sūtra (though unacknowledged). However, it does not contain any specific teachings on buddha nature. (p. 46)
