These are distinctive qualities of the first patience. {4} “They know the particular sūtra with the definitive meaning, Such as the Sugata’s teaching on emptiness. They know that all the Dharmas that teach Of beings, individuals, and persons are provisional truth. {5} “In this world there are many tīrthikas, But they feel no anger toward them.

In meditation they master the perfections. These are distinctive qualities of the second patience. {11} “In meditation they attain the five higher knowledges. Teaching the Dharma they go to a hundred realms. They do not lose their miraculous powers. - [Previous: 2.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo~en-84000.2.17) - [Next: 2.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo~en-84000.2.19) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo~en-84000.2) ## Linked texts (1) - [འཕགས་པ་ཆོས་ཐམས་ཅད་ཀྱི་རང་བཞིན་མཉམ་པ་ཉིད་རྣམ་པར་སྤྲོས་པ་ཏིང་ངེ་འཛིན་གྱི་རྒྱལ་པོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བ་ཐེག་པ་ཆེན་པོའི་མདོ](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo.2.18) — Classical Tibetan --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo~en-84000.2.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.samadhiraja*bo~en-84000.2.18) · Pramāṇa
