Day 3 covers the first half of Chapter 2, Expedients.
Having last month considered the depth of the insight of the Tathāgatas in gāthās, we consider that the Dharma is inexplicable by words.
The Dharma cannot be shown.
It is inexplicable by words.
No one can understand it
Except the Buddhas
And the Bodhisattvas
Who are strong in the power of faith.Even the Buddhas’ disciples who made offerings
To the [past] Buddhas in their previous existence,
[Even the disciples] who eliminated all asravas,
[Even the disciples] who are now at the final stage
Of their physical existence,
Cannot understand [the Dharma].
