There are two parts: first, establishing the fiftieth person; second, establishing the first person. This is the first. By rejoicing in sympathy for a single thought-moment, one will attain bodhi, and the living beings one transforms will be twice the number above; therefore the blessing is greater. Causing them to attain the status of an arhat cannot accomplish buddhahood or extensively rescue living beings; therefore that blessing is inferior. This is like the comparison of the marks of the Buddha's Brahmā voice. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.19) - [Next: 10.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.21) - [Up: 10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723~en-mt.10.20) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.20) · Pramāṇa
