English version: (The Buddha) spread out a seat, sat in the lotus position (vajrasana). He straightened his body and remained with correct mindfulness, without wavering. The Tang Dynasty translation says: 'Straighten the body, make a correct vow, and face (reality) with correct mindfulness.' Asanga (无著) said: 'It shows that only the one who is in tranquility can awaken and speak here.' However, the appearance of the Great Sage (Buddha) must represent something, representing the Buddha of original enlightenment residing in the city of the five skandhas (五蕴, the five aggregates that constitute a person). Realizing that the nature of the demon army is empty is called victory. Seeing that consciousness possesses virtues is like Anathapindika (给孤, a generous Buddhist benefactor). Seeking the Dharma to nourish the spirit is called the community of mendicants (bhiksu-samgha, 比丘僧团). Since the mind of enlightenment has arisen, how can one abandon worldly labors? Intending to observe universally, one enters the mind-store (alaya-vijnana, 阿赖耶识) of mental functions (citta-caitta, 心心数法), contemplating in sequence, transforming from illusion to truth, and all attain Dharma-joy (dharma-priti, 对佛法的喜悦). Dharma-joy has no substance, merging with the mind of enlightenment. Contemplating false conditions, eliminating conditions, can conform to true nature. Contemplation is a trace (of the Buddha), brushing away attachment to the trace, returning to the origin. Returning to the origin, the Dharma is empty and the mind is tranquil. With the mind tranquil, the true essence of prajna (般若, wisdom) shines brightly. Wanting to discuss the true teaching of prajna, it is shown and initiated in this way. Zisheng (资圣) said: 'The body of a person has two aspects, one false and one true. The five skandhas are the false body, relying on clothing and food to survive and reproduce; the Dharma-kaya (法身, the body of the Dharma) has no form, relying on prajna to illuminate and achieve. Sentient beings preserve the false and forget the true, while Buddhas nourish the true and abandon the false. Since sentient beings are deluded by the true and choose the false, I borrow the false trace to guide towards the true. Therefore, relying on the condition of begging for food, I will bestow the transformation of Dharma-joy.' Therefore, the Nirvana Sutra (涅槃经) says: 'You monks, although you beg for food, you have never begged for the Dharma-food of the Mahayana (大乘) in the beginning.' The second part, the orthodox teaching, is distinguished in two aspects. First, it is judged based on the seven meanings of Asanga, and then doubts are resolved based on the questions and answers of Vasubandhu (天亲), using a classification to explain. The initial seven meanings are: First, the lineage is unbroken (gotra-accheda, 种性不断), referring to protection and entrustment. Second, the appearance of arising (pravrtti-lakshana, 发起行相), referring to the request and approval (of the Buddha). Third, the dwelling place of practice (gocara, 行所住处), referring to the eighteen abodes (asta-dasa-avasthah, 十八住). From the Buddha's correct teaching to the end of the sutra, it is the dwelling place of the practice of non-appearance (animitta-carya, 无相行). Fourth, the antidote (pratipaksa, 对治), referring to each abode, which has both wrong practices and common views, and two kinds of antidotes of correct practice. Fifth, non-loss (avyavaccheda, 不失), referring to the avoidance of the two extremes of increase and decrease through antidotes, without losing the Middle Way (madhyama-pratipada, 中道). Sixth, the stage (bhumi, 地位), referring to the achievement of the position of the wise and holy through not losing the Middle Way, including the stage of faith-following (sraddhanusarini-bhumi, 信行地), the stage of purification of lineage (gotrabhu-bhumi, 净心地), and the stage of the Tathagata (tathagata-bhumi, 如来地). Seventh, the establishment of name (samjnana, 立名), referring to the firmness and sharpness of the previous six kinds of wisdom, and the breadth of the stage, so it is called vajra (金刚). The latter four are only explained based on the eighteen abodes in the third sentence, without (other content). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English
English version 《Different Sutra》text. Regarding the Eighteen Abodes: 1. The Abode of Arousing the Mind (发心住). The sutra says: 'One should subdue their mind in this way, all of it,' and so on. 2. The Abode of Practice Corresponding to the Pāramitās (波罗蜜相应行住). Not dwelling on giving of form (色布施), and so on. 3. The Abode of Desiring to Obtain the Form Body (欲得色身住). Can be understood through the characteristics of the body, and so on. 4. The Abode of Desiring to Obtain the Dharma Body (欲得法身住). There are two types of Dharma Body: 1) The Dharma Body of Explaining the Dharma (言说法身). 'There are sentient beings,' and so on, because words can reveal the truth. 2) The Dharma Body of Attainment (证得法身). Again, there are two types: 1) The Aspect of Wisdom (智相). Such as 'The Tathāgata attained Anuttara' (阿耨多罗三藐三菩提, Anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi, unsurpassed perfect enlightenment), and so on. 2) The Aspect of Merit (福相). 'If a person fills three thousand' (若人满三千, if a person fills three thousand great thousand worlds with the seven treasures), and so on. 5. The Abode of No Arrogance in Gaining Victory in Cultivation (于修道得胜中无慢住). Stream-enterer (须陀洹, Srotaāpanna) and so on. From here to the sixteenth abode, they sequentially counteract the twelve types of obstacles. The intention is to explain that to seek the Form Body and Dharma Body, one must be free from these obstacles. When the obstacles are eliminated, one enters the seventeenth abode of Attaining the Path (证道住). Now, we should counteract the first obstacle of arrogance. 6. The Abode of Not Leaving the World of the Buddha (不离佛世时住). In the past, with Dīpaṃkara (然灯, Dīpaṃkara Buddha), and so on. Free from the second obstacle of little learning. Not leaving the world of the Buddha allows one to possess much learning. 7. The Abode of Vowing to Purify the Buddha Land (愿净佛土住). Bodhisattvas adorn the Buddha Land, and so on. Free from the obstacle of small clinging and conceptualizing cultivation. Clinging to a land of form is small; without clinging, it is large, because it accords with the Dharma Realm. 8. The Abode of Maturing Sentient Beings (成熟众生住). The human body is like Mount Sumeru (须弥, Sumeru), and so on. Free from the obstacle of abandoning sentient beings. If one sees smallness and greatness and cannot save beings. 9. The Abode of Staying Away from Following External Doctrines and Distractions (远离随顺外论散乱住). Like all the sands in the Ganges River, and so on. Free from the obstacle of delighting in following external doctrines and distractions. Giving treasures as numerous as the sands of the Ganges is not as good as upholding the sutras. Why do externalists not correct and practice the true Dharma? 10. The Abode of Contemplating Emptiness in the Aggregation of Form and Sentient Beings to Break Through Corresponding Practices (色及众生身抟取中观破相应行住). All the dust particles in three thousand worlds, and so on. Free from the obstacle of lacking skillful means in breaking through the image aspect. Since one is free from distractions, one corresponds with samādhi. Using the two skillful means of subtle particles and non-thought, breaking the coarse to the fine, and annihilating the fine to emptiness, one can remove the conceptualization of the image aspect. 11. The Abode of Making Offerings and Serving the Tathāgata (供养给侍如来住). One can see the Tathāgata through the thirty-two marks, and so on. Free from the obstacle of lacking the accumulation of blessings. Not seeing through form, but constantly seeing the Dharma Body, is called serving, and the blessings are boundless. 12. The Abode of Staying Away from Profit and Weariness and Torment, Therefore Not Arousing Diligence and Falling Back (远离利养及疲乏热恼,故不起精进及退失住). Giving bodies and lives as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, and so on. Free from the obstacle of delighting in taste, laziness, and profit. Giving lives as numerous as the sands of the Ganges is still inferior to upholding (the sutras). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
