English version: 'If a Bodhisattva delights in three things, namely, making offerings to the Buddha (Buddha, the awakened one), expounding the Dharma (preaching the Dharma, teaching the Buddhist teachings), and teaching sentient beings (teaching sentient beings), this is called a Bodhisattva (Bodhisattva, an enlightened being).' Vimalakirti Brahman (Vimalakirti Brahman) said, 'If all the dharmas seen by a Bodhisattva are Buddha-dharmas, this is called a Bodhisattva.' Maitreya Bodhisattva (Maitreya Bodhisattva, the future Buddha) said, 'If sentient beings see a Bodhisattva, they will immediately attain the Samadhi of Loving-kindness (Samadhi of Loving-kindness), this is called a Bodhisattva.' Manjushri Dharma Prince (Manjushri Dharma Prince, the Bodhisattva of Wisdom) said, 'If a Bodhisattva, although speaking of all dharmas, does not cling to Dharma characteristics (Dharma characteristics, the appearance of dharmas) nor to non-Dharma characteristics (non-Dharma characteristics, the appearance of non-dharmas), this is called a Bodhisattva.' Indra's Net Light Bodhisattva (Indra's Net Light Bodhisattva) said, 'If the light of a Bodhisattva can extinguish the afflictions of all sentient beings, this is called a Bodhisattva.' Universal Flower Bodhisattva (Universal Flower Bodhisattva) said, 'If a Bodhisattva sees all the Tathagatas (Tathagata, the title of the Buddha) filling the ten directions of the world, like flowers blooming in a forest, this is called a Bodhisattva.' After the Bodhisattvas each spoke according to their own preferences. At that time, the Buddha (Buddha) said to Samagamin Bodhisattva (Samagamin Bodhisattva), 'If a Bodhisattva can bear all the sufferings for all sentient beings, and can also give up all meritorious deeds to all sentient beings, this is called a Bodhisattva.' Chapter 8: On Quiescence At that time, Vimalakirti Brahman (Vimalakirti Brahman) asked Samagamin Bodhisattva (Samagamin Bodhisattva), 'Good man! What practice do you engage in now?' He replied, 'I practice by following the conduct of sentient beings in all conditioned dharmas (conditioned dharmas, dharmas arising from conditions).' He asked again, 'What is the practice of sentient beings who follow all conditioned dharmas?' He replied, 'The practice of the Buddhas (Buddhas) is the practice of sentient beings who follow all conditioned dharmas.' He asked again, 'What is the practice of the Buddhas?' He replied, 'The practice of the Buddhas is ultimate emptiness (ultimate emptiness) .' He asked again, 'Ordinary people (ordinary people) also engage in the same practice as the Buddhas. What is the difference?' Samagamin Bodhisattva (Samagamin Bodhisattva) said, 'Do you want there to be a difference in emptiness?' He replied, 'No!' Samagamin Bodhisattva (Samagamin Bodhisattva) said, 'Did the Tathagata (Tathagata) not say that all dharmas are empty?' He replied, 'Yes!' 'Therefore, Brahman.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
