perfect passage (圓通). A Dharma Door, the perfect practice of meditation, through which one can pass from ignorance to significant realizations. In the Śūraṅgama Sūtra (T19n0945), at the Buddha’s command, twenty-five Arhats and holy Bodhisattvas reveal their perfect passages. The doctrines or wisdom of Buddha regarded as the doorway to Enlightenment; a method. Just as the living have 84,000 delusions, so the Buddha provides 84,000 methods (Dharma-Doors) to deal with them.
