Because this chapter clarifies the blessedness of incidental practice, this chapter arises. Second, among the fruits of the Single Vehicle, the preceding two chapters clarify the perfected fruit; from here down, three chapters clarify the unperfected fruit, divided into two parts: this chapter clarifies the relative amount of blessed fruit from incidental practice of rejoicing, while the latter two chapters clarify the relative amount of blessed fruit from direct reliance on practice. Therefore this chapter arises. Third, the treatise says there are five powers of the Dharma; three have already been clarified previously, and this is the fourth, hearing the Dharma, referring to what is taught in the 'Chapter on the Merit of Rejoicing.' Because hearing from others can generate rejoicing, it is called hearing the Dharma. Since this chapter extensively clarifies it, the chapter is presented. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 10.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.3) - [Next: 10.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.5) - [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.10.4) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1723.10.4) · Pramāṇa
