"When the Buddha displayed his supernatural power..." onwards is the fifth major section in the chapter, explaining the attainment of benefit. There are two [parts]: First, it separately explains the four classes of persons attaining benefit; second, from "Good sons!" onwards, it generally cites that prajñā brings benefit in the three periods of time. Within the separate explanation of the four assemblies, there are four distinctions: First, that devas and humans of the ten directions attained the Buddha-Flower Samādhi: this is the Avataṃsaka-samādhi, attained at the tenth bhūmi. Second, bodhisattvas numerous as the sands of ten Ganges rivers attained the buddha-body. Third, spirit-kings of the eight classes numerous as the sands of three Ganges rivers attained the bodhisattva path, which is at or above the first bhūmi. Fourth, ten thousand women attained supernatural powers in their present bodies, referring to the five supernatural powers. From "Good sons!" onwards, it generally cites prajñā to explain the benefits in the three periods of time.
