force producing virtue, that is the volition which arouses<br />

to life the roots of virtue (as absence of desire etc.) is free<br />

from any connection with imputations regarding the<br />

reality of the Ego etc.<br />

of a consideration in favour of the Buddha (as a separate reality)<br />

5 The convergence characterized by the recollection<br />

of the relative character of the<br />

virtues of the Buddha. The roots of virtue<br />

of the Buddha and the mind which brings about their<br />

convergence are conceived as having no separate reality<br />

of their own. 2 As the Bodhisattva has no imputed views<br />

regarding their reality, he does not make a differentiation<br />

of them as separate entities.<br />
