English version Bodhisattvas are sustained by three dharmas, which are bodhicitta (the mind of enlightenment), mahākaruṇā (great compassion), and upāya (skillful means). The Bodhisattvas explained above include all the Dharma of the Mantra (mantra) and all the Exoteric Mahāyāna (Mahāyāna Buddhism). Such great Bodhisattvas are respectfully surrounded by the Eight Offerings (aṣṭa-pūjā) and the Four Gate Bodhisattvas, etc., to represent the samādhi-parivāra (samadhi retinue) of the Tathāgata. The sutra says 'The Dharma spoken is good in the beginning, middle, and end.' What Dharma is being spoken? It is the prajñā-naya (wisdom principle and interest) of the great Bodhisattvas. 'Good in the beginning' refers to the kāya-guhya (body secret) of all Tathāgatas, and the bodily demeanor of all mudrās (hand seals). 'Good in the middle' refers to the vāc-guhya (speech secret) of all Tathāgatas, and the inviolable commands of the Mantra dhāraṇī (dhāraṇī) Dharma King. 'Good in the end' refers to the iṣṭadevatā-yoga (yoga of the chosen deity), all samādhi (meditative absorption), and immeasurable wisdom liberation. Another explanation is that 'good in the beginning' refers to adhiśīla-śikṣā (higher training in morality), 'good in the middle' refers to adhicitta-śikṣā (higher training in mind), and 'good in the end' refers to adhiprajñā-śikṣā (higher training in wisdom). 'Skillful in words and meaning' refers to skill in words, based on śabda-śāstra (linguistics), with clear and elegant diction, possessing sixty-four kinds of Sanskrit sounds. 'Subtle in meaning' refers to being based on the dva-satya (two truths), saṃvṛti-satya (conventional truth) and paramārtha-satya (ultimate truth). 'Pure and singular' indicates that the Tathāgata Yoga is not the same as the common teachings of the triyāna (three vehicles: Śrāvakayāna, Pratyekabuddhayāna, and Bodhisattvayāna). Therefore, only the Tathāgata's ultimate inner realization is the āvenika-dharma (unique Buddha-dharma) of the Dharma garden of joyful wisdom. 'Complete' means that the above wisdom can cut off all afflictions and habitual tendencies of the darśana-mārga (path of seeing) and bhāvanā-mārga (path of cultivation) in the triloka (three realms: desire realm, form realm, and formless realm) and navabhūmi (nine grounds), cut off the dvi-āvaraṇa (two obscurations: afflictive obscuration and cognitive obscuration), and complete the dvi-sambhāra (two accumulations: merit and wisdom). 'Pure' indicates being free from defilement and pure. Due to the Yoga Dharma, corresponding to a single thought of pure mind, one attains the tathatā (suchness), without abandoning great compassion, and attains Buddhahood in pure and impure lands through the saṃbhogakāya (enjoyment body) and nirmāṇakāya (emanation body). The sutra says 'immaculate white,' the dharma-dhātu (dharma realm) is originally undefiled, and even when covered by the immeasurable defilements of the avidyā-sthiti (ground of ignorance) of pṛthag-jana (ordinary beings), its nature does not diminish. Entering the ārya-srota (stream of the noble ones) and attaining the Buddha-ground, its nature does not increase. The sutra says 'speaking the gate of pure sentences of all dharmas' is for practitioners of Yoga, so that they are not defiled by the cycle of birth and death, broadly benefit and bring happiness to sentient beings, quickly attain immeasurable samādhi liberation wisdom, quickly accumulate vast merit and wisdom, transcend all māras (demons) and vināyakas (obstructing deities), and quickly obtain the fulfillment of supreme worldly and supramundane wishes. Therefore, it speaks of the great Tathāgata. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Out of compassion for those with the highest Mahayana nature, they are liberated from the seventeen kinds of pure Yoga Samadhis. Therefore, the sutras say: 'The three realms are only mind.' Due to the purity of the mind, sentient beings are pure; due to the defilement of the mind, sentient beings are defiled. It is also said that the realm of sentient beings is the pure and wonderful Buddha-land of the Bodhisattvas, which is achieved through cultivating and attaining the seventeen pure sentence-gates. The sutra says that the so-called 'Delightful Purity Sentence' is the state of a Bodhisattva. 'Delightful' is the Sanskrit word 'Surata' (bliss). 'Surata' (bliss) is like the entertainment of men and women in the world. Vajrasattva (Diamond Being) is also 'Surata' (bliss), because with unconditioned great compassion, he universally cares for the endless realm of sentient beings, wishing them to attain happiness and benefit, with no rest in his mind, and with equality and non-duality between self and others, therefore he is called 'Surata' (bliss). By cultivating the Vajrasattva (Diamond Being) Yoga Samadhi, one obtains the Delightful Purity Sentence, and thus attains the state of Samantabhadra (Universal Worthy) Bodhisattva.

Therefore, one attains the position of Spring-vajra Bodhisattva. 'Purity of Mental Nourishment' is the Bodhisattva stage.

By obtaining the four wisdom seals of Yoga, namely Mahamudra (Great Seal), Samaya-mudra (Pledge Seal), Dharma-mudra (Law Seal), and Karma-mudra (Action Seal), just like the aforementioned Bodhisattvas, one possesses all four. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
