仁王護國般若波羅蜜多經疏 2.343

2.343

The commentary states: A bodhisattva of this bhūmi will definitely be able to advance into the swift stream of the Dharma of the subsequent Immovable bhūmi. 'Forever free of fractional [birth]': before this, there was still the possibility of fractional [birth], undergoing birth in the three realms; now in this bhūmi is the final limit of purposeful fractional [birth]. 'Transcends the realms of existence': untainted absorption and vows sustain that superior body, causing the karmic retribution that is experienced to become gradually more exalted, up until equal enlightenment, undergoing transformational birth and transcending the three realms of existence. Hereafter, the third part clarifies the obstacles that are severed.
