. In order to explain it through commentary, "the first mind of enlightenment" and so on are proclaimed. "To enumerate extensively" means that in a single moment, one attains thousands of samadhis, sees thousands of Buddhas, and also truly knows their blessings, can cause thousands of worlds to shake and appear, can go to thousands of fields, can fully ripen sentient beings, can abide for thousands of kalpas and penetrate the beginning and end, can distinguish thousands of Dharma gates, can universally show thousands of bodies, and also universally show each body as possessing a retinue of Bodhisattvas. That is its meaning. Moreover, he can become a universal monarch who rules the four continents, possessing the seven precious things, able to wash away the stains of moral corruption of sentient beings. Now, in order to explain the number of qualities of the Bodhisattvas who abide in the arising of the third generation of Bodhicitta and so on, "the nature of those qualities" and so on are proclaimed. "A hundred thousand" means that the Bodhisattva who generates the third Bodhicitta will obtain a hundred thousand of the qualities previously shown. For example, as it is said, in a single moment, one obtains a hundred thousand samadhis, sees a hundred thousand Buddhas, and also truly knows their blessings, can cause a hundred thousand worlds to shake, can appear, can go to a hundred thousand fields, can fully ripen a hundred thousand sentient beings, can abide for a hundred thousand kalpas and penetrate the beginning and end, can distinguish a hundred thousand Dharma gates, can show a hundred thousand bodies, and also universally show each body as possessing a hundred thousand Bodhisattva retinues. It's like that. Moreover, he can become the lord of the gods who rules the Thirty-three (त्रयस्त्रिंश, trayastriṃśa, Thirty-three), in order to draw sentient beings out of the mire of desire, he is skilled in conveniently practicing the methods to turn sentient beings away from attachment to desire. "A hundred million" means that the Bodhisattva who generates the fourth Bodhicitta, those qualities themselves obtain a hundred million.

Moreover, he will become the king of the gods who has power over Strife-Free, and in order to establish sentient beings in the correct view, he is skilled in completely uprooting the view of the aggregates of sentient beings. The so-called obtaining a billionfold means that the Bodhisattva who generates the fifth mind will obtain those qualities a billionfold, as it is said: In a single moment, one obtains a billion samadhis, sees a billion Buddhas, and also truly knows their blessings, is able to shake and manifest a billion world realms, goes to a billion fields, completely ripens a billion sentient beings, abides for a billion kalpas and penetrates the beginning and end, distinguishes a billion Dharma gates, universally shows a billion bodies, and also universally shows that each body is endowed with a billion retinue Bodhisattvas, as it is said.

如是了知,且能摇动、显现百千世界,往诣百千俱胝佛土,令百千俱胝有情成熟,安住百千俱胝劫,且能入于前后际,分别百千俱胝法门,示现百千俱胝身,于一一身复能示现百千俱胝那由他眷属菩萨。如是说。又彼能转为他化自在天之天王,善能令诸有情入于缘起,善能以威势降伏有情之增上慢。言圆满转变俱胝百千俱胝百千者,谓发第七心之菩萨,彼诸功德乃俱胝百千俱胝,即一俱胝十万。若以百倍增之,复以千倍增之,其数有几,即得尔许之数之功德,谓得俱胝百千俱胝百千也。如云刹那顷获得俱胝百千俱胝三摩地,见俱胝百千俱胝佛,亦能如实了知彼等之加持,且能摇动、显现俱胝百千俱胝世界,往诣俱胝百千俱胝佛土,令俱胝百千俱胝有情成熟,安住俱胝百千俱胝劫,入于前后际,分别俱胝百千俱胝法门,示现俱胝百千俱胝身,于一一身复能示现眷属菩萨俱胝百千俱胝百千俱胝。又彼能转为他化自在之天王,善能于有情之现证作近方便。释中如是显示。

Thus knowing, and being able to shake and manifest hundreds of thousands of worlds, going to hundreds of thousands of kotis of Buddha lands, causing hundreds of thousands of kotis of sentient beings to mature, abiding for hundreds of thousands of kotis of kalpas, and being able to enter into the past and future, distinguishing hundreds of thousands of kotis of Dharma doors, manifesting hundreds of thousands of kotis of bodies, and in each body being able to manifest hundreds of thousands of kotis of nayutas of attendant Bodhisattvas. Thus it is said. Moreover, they can transform into the king of the gods of the Paranirmita-vasavartin heaven, being skilled in causing sentient beings to enter into dependent origination, and being skilled in subduing the arrogance of sentient beings with power. The words "perfectly transforming into kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of hundreds of thousands" mean that the Bodhisattva who has generated the seventh mind, those qualities are kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis, which is one koti ten thousand. If it is increased by a hundredfold, and then increased by a thousandfold, how many numbers are there, that many numbers of qualities will be obtained, meaning that kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of hundreds of thousands will be obtained. As it is said, in an instant, one obtains kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of samadhis, sees kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of Buddhas, and is also able to truly know their blessings, and is able to shake and manifest kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of worlds, go to kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of Buddha lands, cause kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of sentient beings to mature, abide for kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of kalpas, enter into the past and future, distinguish kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of Dharma doors, manifest kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of bodies, and in each body being able to manifest attendant Bodhisattvas kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis of hundreds of thousands of kotis. Moreover, they can transform into the king of the gods of the Paranirmita-vasavartin heaven, being skilled in making proximate means for the realization of sentient beings. The commentary shows this.
