intro.7

Padmaśrīgarbha continues to ask the Buddha about the illusory absorption, and he wonders whether anyone among his peers in the Buddha’s retinue might have obtained this absorption. Indeed, the Buddha confirms, several students have gained this absorption, but all of them have attained their realization by associating with two bodhisattvas, Avalokiteśvara and Mahā­sthāmaprāpta, who live in Sukhāvatī, the distant realm of Buddha Amitābha.
