As for the hundred merits, within the ten good actions there are the ten active practices and the ten abstentions, which together make twenty. Each possesses five grades, as the Great Sūtra says—inferior, middling, superior, superior-middling, and superior-superior—and therefore they make one hundred goods, termed the hundred merits. Here it is also like this: the ten good actions make ten; treated in terms of practicing oneself, converting others, praising persons, and extolling the Dharma, they make forty; treated in terms of the five dharma masters, they make two hundred; with two hundred for active goods and likewise two hundred for abstention goods, they make four hundred; because active and abstention each have five grades, they make two thousand; explaining them in terms of the three karmas, each karma has two thousand, and therefore they make six thousand. Since there are six sense faculties, each faculty should have one thousand, which would then make six thousand. It is only because their functions have strengths and weaknesses that there are one thousand two hundred and eight hundred. Some say: Like the three things in the 'Dharma Master Chapter' above, where loving-kindness and compassion are the room, gentle forbearance is the robe, and the emptiness of all phenomena is the seat—these three things each have two thousand, and thus make six thousand. For instance, when one practices the ten good actions with a mind of loving-kindness and compassion, one good action is in turn adorned with the ten good actions, thus making one hundred goods; with the four—practicing oneself, converting others, and so on—they make four hundred; treated in terms of the five kinds of dharma masters, they then make two thousand. Since it is so for the mind of loving-kindness and compassion, it is likewise so for forbearance and emptiness, thus making six thousand. Some say: Relying on the Renwang jing to explain the bodhisattvas of the ten faiths, each faith is endowed with ten to make one hundred; with the four—practicing oneself, converting others, and so on—there are four hundred; treated in terms of the five dharma masters, they make two thousand; and based on the three things above—loving-kindness, compassion, and so on—they make six thousand. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.68](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.10.68) - [Next: 10.70](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.10.70) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720~en-mt.10.69) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.10.69](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1720.10.69) · Pramāṇa
