From "destroying" downward, destroying arrogance and enduring suffering. First, destroying arrogance: disrespect toward superiors is called haughtiness; clinging to self and looking down on inferiors is called self-pride; being arrogant among equals is called great pride—all of which one can destroy for the sake of the Dharma. Previously, bodily respect was easy to perform, but mental pride was difficult to dispel; hence it is explained next. The treatise says: "That haughty mind can also be renounced here." 5. From "various evils" downward, enduring suffering to seek the Dharma: emotions and pride are easy to renounce, but bodily suffering is difficult to endure; hence it is discerned next. 6. From "if obtaining" downward, surpassing the obtaining of heavy treasures, because three thousand \[worlds of\] heavy treasures are difficult to part with. 7. Surpassing the obtaining of a cakravartin, because it is the supreme among humans. 8. Surpassing the obtaining of Śakra, because it is the supreme among the desire-realm heavens. 9. Surpassing the obtaining of a Brahmā king, because it is the most superior among the form-realm heavens. 10. Renouncing the body and throwing oneself into fire, fully as explained in the sixth dedication. This is binding oneself with commitments through specific acts, revealing that the seeking mind is earnest, and there is no difficulty one cannot \[bear\]. "Able to contemplate correctly in all ways" means focusing mindfulness and reflecting, thereby apprehending the essential meaning; in the treatise, it explains the cause of correct cultivation. The rest is as discerned and explained in the treatise. The section on the practice of weariness is concluded. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.12.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.12.12.3) - [Next: 12.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.12.13) - [Up: 12.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.12.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733~en-mt.12.12.4) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.12.12.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.12.12.4) · Pramāṇa
