He knows the self to be free from all partialities. [...]鈥�.

All the gods, beginning with Brahm膩, reside in the Li峁単a (腻艣谤颈迟测补鈥�濒颈峁単补m 腻艣谤颈迟测补 sa峁僺thit膩岣�); therefore a Yogin who venerates his guru, God and the fire and who has performed his 惫颈诲测腻惫谤补迟补 should install the 濒颈峁単补, following the procedure taught in scripture.

In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra膧艣谤颈迟测补 (啶嗋ざ啷嵿ぐ啶苦い啷嵿く) refers to 鈥�(that which is) based (on a particular view)鈥�, according to Mah膩praj帽膩p膩ramit膩艣膩stra (chapter 41).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淸Digression on a case brought against the Buddha; B. The defense].鈥擺7. Silence on the Fourteen Difficult Questions].鈥擳he Buddha did not answer fourteen difficult questions.鈥� Furthermore, being based (腻艣谤颈迟测补) on the eternalist view (艣腻艣惫补迟补诲峁涐梗峁璱) or the nihilist view (耻肠肠丑别诲补诲峁涐梗峁璱), the heretics asked the questions of eternalism or nihilism, but since any real nature (蝉补迟测补濒补办峁峁嘺) is absent in them, the Buddha did not reply. The eternal nature (苍颈迟测补濒补办峁峁嘺) and the non-eternal nature (a苍颈迟测补濒补办峁峁嘺) seen by these heretics have no reality. Why? The heretics grasp (耻诲驳峁沨峁嘺迟鈥�耻诲驳峁沨峁嘺苍迟颈) these natures and become attached to them, saying: 鈥楾his is eternal, that is nothingness鈥�. As for the Buddha, he too speaks of eternal nature and non-eternal nature, but merely by way of refutation (辫谤补迟颈辫补办峁). [...]鈥�.
Mahayana (啶す啶距く啶距え, mah膩y膩na) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings).
