Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāSamyaktvaniyama (सम्यक्त्वनियम) refers to “faultless reality”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “What then, son of good family, is the recollection of the dharma (dharmānusmṛti), which is authorized by the Lord for the sake of the Bodhisattvas? [...] The dharma is beyond distinguishing marks, and he who pursues distinguishing marks is without the recollection of the dharma. The dharma is unconditioned, and he who is dependent on the conditioned place is without the recollection of the dharma. Further, the recollection of the dharma is to see the fact that there is no origination of any conditioned thing, and to enter into faultless reality (samyaktvaniyama). The Bodhisattva, knowing that all dharmas are not originated because of their intrinsic nature, attains the tolerance that all things are unborn. This state of being is the true dharma”.
Mahayana (महायान, mahāyāna) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many sūtras of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā sūtras.
