Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāPrakṛtiviśuddha (प्रकृतिविशुद्ध) refers to “(that which is) originally pure”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “When this had been said, the Lord said to the Bodhisattva, the great being Gaganagañja: ‘[...] Just as the sky is imperishable, in the same way, [the Bodhisattva] imperishably transforms [the giving] into the imperishability of the succession of the three jewels when he gives a gift. Just as there is no darkness in the sky, in the same way, [the Bodhisattva] gives a gift without the darkness of all afflictions. Just as the sky is always radiant, in the same way, [the Bodhisattva] gives a gift with a mind originally pure (citta-prakṛtiviśuddha). [...]’”.
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.
