English

English version Eight Asamkhya kalpas (innumerable eons). Until the 'no-leaving-mind' (not departing from Bodhicitta). Clearly explaining the mature merits of practice. Furthermore, regarding the Bodhisattva who has attained the Kshanti (patience) that accords with the path, the middle-grade meritorious power of the Fifth Bhumi Bodhisattva's Kshanti is so strong that all demons cannot destroy it, hence it is called the 'Difficult to Overcome Ground'. Regarding the Four Fearlessnesses (four kinds of fearlessness wisdom), using fearless wisdom to observe the realm, hence it is said 'observing with the wisdom of the Four Fearlessnesses'. Explaining the principle of Nayuta (an extremely large numerical unit). Regarding internal treatises, the sutra says: 'First, it reveals the correct cause and effect; second, it reveals that what is done will not be destroyed, not done will not come', hence it is called internal treatise. External treatises also have two types: one is able to refute others' arguments, and the other is to expound one's own meaning, hence it is called external treatise. Medical treatises have four aspects: first, it shows a good understanding of diseases; second, it shows the causes of diseases; third, it shows the ability to remove diseases that have already arisen; fourth, it shows that diseases that have been removed will not recur, hence it is called medical treatise. Craft treatises show various worldly skills, such as goldsmiths, blacksmiths, carpenters, etc., and various other areas of knowledge, hence it is called craft treatise. Mantra treatises show skillful and expedient words, hence it is called mantra. 'I am the all-knowing person', such a Bodhisattva, seeking the five sciences (Shabda-vidya, Shilpa-vidya, Chikitsa-vidya, Hetu-vidya, Adhyatma-vidya), for the supreme Bodhi's great wisdom, all resources are ultimately fulfilled, hence it is called the all-knowing person. Explaining the fearlessness of all-knowing, eliminating the ignorance and other afflictions of the three realms. 'The self-image has been exhausted', explaining the wisdom of the exhaustion of outflows. 'In each ground, there is something that comes out', hence it is called the 'path-out-er', referring to the outflow-less path of transcendence. Explaining the fearlessness of the exhaustion of the path. 'There is something that does not come out', hence it is called the 'path-obstruct-er', referring to the afflictive obstructions. Explaining the fearlessness of obstructing the path, breaking through the doubts of the three realms. Wanting to explain that the afflictions of the Fifth Bhumi Bodhisattva are very subtle. Cultivating immeasurable merits, with dignified appearance and complete practice, able to overcome various obstacles and difficulties, and enter the Difficult-to-Conquer Ground early, hence it is said 'accumulating immeasurable skillful virtues to enter the Srotapanna stage'. Again, experiencing eight Asamkhya kalpas, is based on the kalpas of the stages of practice. 'Practicing all Dharani gates', is practicing with total retention (remembering and understanding the Dharma). 'Constantly practicing the fearless contemplation without leaving the mind', summarizing the above four fearless contemplations. Having already transformed the mountains. Arriving at the Sixth Bhumi, there are two sentences in the sutra: from 'the beginning to the one aspect, non-aspect, and non-duality', explaining the practice of counteracting expedient means.
