parasols, victory banners, and flags appear to all those beings, which they will offer to the buddhas, and may those beings develop the aspiration for the highest, most complete enlightenment. Bhagavat, may I see this myself through the power of the array of visions samādhi.’  
  
“As soon as he said those words, he saw what he had prayed for. The Bhagavat said, ‘It is excellent, noble son, excellent that you, noble son, will purify ten thousand buddha realms—your own and everywhere around it—and that you will purify the continuum of minds of countless, numberless beings. Thus you will equal the zeal of making countless, numberless offerings to countless, numberless bhagavat buddhas. Therefore, noble son, you should be named Samantabhadra.’  
  
“ ‘Samantabhadra, in the future, when countless eons, as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges River, have passed, and a second series of countless eons has begun, in the northern direction from here, beyond as many buddha realms as there are grains of sand in sixty Ganges Rivers, there will be a world realm called Jñāna­tāpasuviśuddha­guṇā. You, Samantabhadra, will attain the complete enlightenment of perfect enlightenment there. You will become the tathāgata arhat samyaksam­buddha, and so on, up to and including the buddha bhagavat, named Jñāna­vajra­vijṛmbhiteśvara­ketu.’  
  
“Then, noble son, the bodhisattva Samantabhadra bowed down his head to the feet of the Tathāgata Ratnagarbha.  
  
“The Tathāgata Ratnagarbha said:  
  
“ ‘Arise, you who have perfect joy, excellent resolve, and a controlled mind!  
You who have an unwavering commitment, you must purify the mind continuum of beings  
And liberate beings from the terrible river of the kleśas.  
You will become a buddha, a lamp of wisdom in the world.’
