31.14

Therefore, O jinaputra, give your teaching! The tathāgata arhat samyak­sambuddhas will oversee⁷⁷ its protection.”

Then the bodhisattva Vimukti­candra, in order to repeat this clearly, recited these verses to the bodhisattva Vajra­garbha:

“Son of the omniscient one! Teach well every pure conduct:
The bhūmis, engagement in conduct, enlightenment, and the attainment of wisdom.
The jinas in the ten directions, all sugatas, every protector and guide—
All those leaders are intent upon the teaching of the source of wisdom.

“This initial wisdom and conduct is the ultimate conclusion.
It is the source of all the countless qualities of the jinas,
Just as the alphabet precedes and accompanies letters and words.
We wish for the supreme bhūmis that are similarly the ultimate conclusion for the realm of the mind.”⁷⁸

Then all the bodhisattvas sang together in one voice, making a request to the bodhisattva Vajra­garbha through the verses of a song:

“You have the supreme, highest understanding.
You are eloquent⁷⁹ and possess infinite brilliance.
Speak with your supreme beautiful voice,
That which possesses the ultimate truth.⁸⁰

“With pure understanding⁸¹ endowed with unwavering ⁸² memory,
Pure motivation,⁸³ and the attainment of the strength of the ten strengths,
And having analyzed the ten bhūmis⁸⁴ with your own discrimination,
Give the teaching of the supreme ten bhūmis.⁸⁵

“They have good minds that are peaceful and restrained.
They are free of arrogance, pride, and view-originated kleśas.
Those of the assembly are free from doubt,
And they long to hear your teaching.

“Just as the thirsty long for cool water,
The hungry want food, and the sick want medicine,⁸⁶
And just as swarms of bees yearn for honey,
In that way this assembly yearns for your words.
