English version: Practicing without breaking decorum in all situations, and equally teaching the Dharma to all beings, one achieves the power of all-place wisdom (being able to reach all places with wisdom); practicing and teaching sentient beings within the practice of Dhyana, one achieves the power of wisdom arising from the purity of Dhyana, Samadhi, and Samapatti (wisdom arising from meditation, capable of clearing defilements); practicing the right path, and showing the right path to sentient beings who have lost it, one achieves the power of divine eye wisdom (being able to see distant and subtle things); practicing right mindfulness with all sentient beings, one achieves the power of knowledge of past lives; practicing pure Dharma with all sentient beings, one achieves the power of the wisdom of the extinction of outflows (cutting off all afflictions); practicing extensive learning and teaching sentient beings, one achieves fearlessness in great assemblies. When the World Honored One spoke this Dharma gate called 'Entering the Order of All Practices,' there were two Bodhisattvas in the assembly: one named Anabhilāpya (无所发), and the other named Tvaritabuddhi (奋迅慧), who were seated with their retinues on a separate pavilion treasure hall. These two Bodhisattvas, sitting there, arose such a thought: 'There are Bodhisattva Mahasattvas who possess vast collections of Dharma, and we should speak of them.' After saying these words, Bodhisattva Tvaritabuddhi spoke to Bodhisattva Mahasattva Anabhilāpya: 'Good man! How does a Bodhisattva Mahasattva know the birth of the Buddhas, Tathāgatas (如来), Arhats (应供), Samyaksaṃbuddhas (正遍知)? How does a Bodhisattva Mahasattva know the true body of the Buddhas Tathagatas? How does one know that the Buddhas Tathagatas achieve enlightenment for the sake of others? How does one know that the Buddhas Tathagatas are truly permanent? How does a Bodhisattva know the Great Parinirvana (大般涅槃) of the Buddhas Tathagatas? How does a Bodhisattva know the conduct of the Buddhas Tathagatas? How does a Bodhisattva know the correspondence of metaphors? How does a Bodhisattva know the types of Buddhas? How does a Bodhisattva know that the Buddhas Tathagatas only rely on words to teach the Dharma? How does a Bodhisattva know the meaning of emptiness (Śūnyatā 空)? How does a Bodhisattva know the Dharma corresponding to emptiness? How does a Bodhisattva know the one who speaks of emptiness? How does a Bodhisattva know the meaning of a Dharma master? How does a Bodhisattva know the metaphors corresponding to a Dharma master? How do Bodhisattvas know the unique Dharmas (Āveṇikadharma 不共住法)? How do Bodhisattvas know the matters of transformation? How does a Bodhisattva know the excellent and wonderful results of good roots? Good man! How does a Bodhisattva know that the undefiled good roots can obtain excellent and wonderful results?' At that time, Bodhisattva Mahasattva Anabhilāpya spoke to Bodhisattva Tvaritabuddhi: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: The Buddha said: 'Good man! You are skilled in asking about these profound collections of Dharma. Good man! This is a supremely wonderful and vast Dharma collection teaching. Good man! Listen attentively now, and I will, relying on the Buddha's majestic power and the Tathagata's (tathagata, one who comes thus) empowerment, explain to you what constitutes the vast Dharma collection teaching.' 'Good man! A Bodhisattva (bodhisattva, an enlightened being) who enters into ten kinds of Dharma practice can know the arising of the Tathagata (tathagata, one who comes thus), the Arhat (arhat, one who is worthy of offerings), the Samyaksambuddha (samyaksambuddha, perfectly enlightened one). What are the ten? They are: arising from being far removed from all discriminating thoughts produced by action; proceeding in tranquility by transforming and detaching from all mind, thought, and consciousness; manifesting the practice of arising and ceasing because of all arising and ceasing phenomena; practicing all actions of karmic retribution because of relying on past actions; gathering all actions because of obtaining the collection of unobstructed Dharmadhatu (dharmadhatu, the realm of dharma) actions; being called adornment because of taking the ten great vows as the head and fulfilling hundreds of thousands of millions of asamkhyas (asamkhya, countless) of vows to adorn oneself; being called the Buddha's empowerment because of obtaining the empowerment of all Buddhas and Tathagatas; becoming the collection and arising of all actions because of following the good roots created by teaching all sentient beings; skillfully teaching sentient beings with great compassion and great pity; obtaining a profound mind because of constantly abiding in and maintaining the good roots of sentient beings, blowing upon their minds; manifesting various kinds of births because of following the differences in the minds and practices of sentient beings. Good man! This is called a Bodhisattva-Mahasattva (bodhisattva-mahasattva, great bodhisattva) entering into ten kinds of Dharma practice, able to know the arising of the Tathagata, Arhat, Samyaksambuddha.' 'Furthermore, good man! A Bodhisattva-Mahasattva who enters into ten kinds of Dharma practice can know the true body of the Tathagata. What are the ten? They are: taking truth as its essence, because it is pure and without defilement; taking the Dharmadhatu as its essence, because there is no difference; taking reality as its essence, because it universally arrives; taking emptiness, signlessness, and wishlessness as its essence, because it is truly tranquil; taking illusion, flame, echo, the moon in water, a Gandharva (gandharva, celestial musician) city, and a revolving fire wheel as its essence, because they exist as causes and conditions for transformation; taking non-arising and non-ceasing as its essence, because there is no substance; taking the self-nature of all dharmas as its essence, because the self-nature is bright and white; the past does not come, because there is no interval; the future does not go, because there is no form; the present does not abide, because the past and future do not exist. Good man! This is called a Bodhisattva-Mahasattva entering into ten kinds of Dharma practice, able to know...' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 如来、应供、正遍知真实身。
