Holmes (1985) [3]
- Suchness is approached in different ways
- by ordinary beings, the deeply-realised
- and the completely-enlightened.
- Hence the seers of the true nature have taught
- that all beings have this buddha-essence.
Fuchs (2000) [4]
- Based upon the manifestation of suchness dividing
- into that of an ordinary being, that of a noble one,
- and that of a perfect buddha, He who Sees Thatness
- has explained the nature of the Victor to beings.
