Yoshiro Tamura, "Introduction to the Lotus Sutra", p93-94In chapter 2 is a passage that reads:
The buddhas, the most honored of people,
Know that nothing exists independently,
And that buddha-seeds arise interdependently. This is why they teach the one vehicle.Things are part of the everlasting Dharma,
And the character of the Dharma in the world endures forever.These verses have been used from ancient times to show respect for that part of the explanation of the mental organ that appears in chapter 19, where it says:
And their many teachings will be in accord with the meanings, and never contrary to the true nature of reality. If they teach about some secular text, or speak about the political world or about matters related to livelihood, in every case they will do so in accord with the true Dharma.
