knowing as not liberated.
"Lord, the Tathagatagarbha is not void of the Buddha dharmas which are nondiscrete,
inconceivable, more numerous than the sands of the Ganges, and knowing as liberated.
What?
All I can say is that we have two defilement stores near the train station. They seemed pretty liberated to me though. Dharma, I don't know...
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
