failure to appear among both rival communities and those beings who seek to cultivate the roots of virtue is not. Aspirations made without conceit is the perfection of aspiration; to share access to the various roots of virtue of oneself and all beings, and then to not dedicate it to unsurpassable, completely perfect awakening, is not. Strength without conceit is the perfection of strength; the failure of those with the forms of Nārāyaṇa and Vajrapāṇi to tame beings who are puffed up with pride, arrogance, and haughtiness is not. Wisdom without conceit is the perfection of wisdom; the failure to engage in any arts, expertise,⁹⁵ or profession is not. Child of good family, this describes the Dharma of the bodhisattvas that involves the perfections.

“Furthermore, child of good family, bodhisattvas also do not hope for any result, and yet strive to give away all material goods in every way. They form no concepts about discipline, and yet will not violate their training even at the cost of their life. They are fundamentally unshakeable, and yet they loathe maliciousness even while not getting angry. They have no desire, and yet they strive for all roots of virtue. They are nonconceptual, and yet are dedicated to meditative stability and the higher cognitions. They have absolutely no doubts about anything, and yet dedicatedly apply themselves to study, reflection, and meditation. They do not seek anything at all, and yet apprehend all the various roots of virtue. Their minds remain nowhere, and yet all their aspirations are accomplished. They have defeated pride, arrogance, and haughtiness, and yet they have attained an unbreakable body that is hard like a diamond. They know all treatises, and yet⁹⁶ they seek out teachers and masters.
