Fifth, not practicing in accordance with what one has heard; sixth, taking joy in the Hīnayāna; seventh, anger in mind, speech with the mouth, evil deeds with the body, and hateful looks with the eyes; eighth, slandering the Dharma and disparaging others; ninth, [indulging in] literary expressions and worldly discourses; tenth, abandoning danger and seeking safety; eleventh, slighting the Dharma with a scattered, agitated [mind]—the extra one constitutes an augmented ten. Third, 'there are ten kinds of renouncing māra-actions': one cultivates antidotes against obstructions; hence it is called 'renouncing'. 1. Renouncing through other-power; 2. renouncing through self-power; 3. the power of sincere faith; 4. the power of recollecting the original [vow]; 5. leaving behind negligence; 6. seeking the fundamental Dharma; 7. delighting in the profound Dharma; 8. taking refuge in the Buddha; 9. mindfulness of the Buddha. As for the bodhi tree, it is because one dedicates roots of goodness, resolving that at this tree one must realize bodhi. 10. Roots of goodness having the same nature, or also having the same fruit. Fourth, 'there are ten [ways of] seeing the Buddha': when the obstructions to practice have been eliminated, the realm of the Buddha appears; hence it is called 'seeing the Buddha'. Among the ten, each states a title and explains its meaning. First, 'dwelling securely in the world' indicates non-attachment to nirvāṇa. 'Realizing right awakening' indicates non-attachment to the world; hence it is called the Buddha of non-attachment. Another explanation: 'non-attachment' means not stagnating—namely, not stagnating in the quiescence of essence, but manifesting in the world and displaying the realization of right awakening. This is the general phrase. The nine below are distinct manifestations: 1. Appearing on account of the power of vows; as stated above, 'due to the power of the Buddha's vows, all see.' 2. Displaying past good karma that attains this wondrous fruit, causing others to have faith and know that karma is not in vain. Another explanation: using supreme meritorious karma to induce this body with marks and characteristics, thereby inspiring faith in beings. 3. The essence of the pure consciousness sustains roots of goodness in accord with realizing right awakening, and also sustains pure lands and the like. 4. Although manifesting in the world, ever dwelling in nirvāṇa. The former sustains so as to make it arise in accordance [with conditions]; this one desires to deliver while remaining ever extinct, on account of non-obstruction. Question: Does this not serve as the explanation for the general phrase? If not so, how could right awakening be realized? 5. This is the ultimate dharmadhātu, and thus pervades everywhere conditioned practices occur. Moreover, this body of manifested awakening pervades all places; hence it is called the dharmadhātu Buddha, like the Buddha who unifies and pervades all places. As above, it is the Buddha-body filling all dharmadhātus. 6. Although the Buddha is omnipresent, it is in the minds of those whose capacities resonate that he then securely abides; the mind itself is the Buddha. As stated above, 'receptacles to be transformed are completely filled.' It is also gathered and formed through the conditioned arising of the pure mind; hence it is said to 'securely abide.' 7. Although appearing within the mind, he is ever in deep samādhi, because across many places he is without attachment to any. 8. Because the essence does not change, it is called 'determinate'; this extends to when it is within defilement, etc.; on account of this and the like, right awakening is realized; if not, then it would not be so. 9. Just as the intent of the one who transforms universally covers the host of capacities. Also, just as the intent of those who are transformed is universally covered. Also, like a cintāmaṇi jewel, it universally covers in response to capacities without deliberation. Another explanation: 'as one wills' refers to the unhindered great function. The ten Buddhas here should be understood in accordance with the six characteristics of general and particular, etc. Furthermore, these ten Buddhas are subsumed into five pairs: The first two are the pair of active and passive: the first is that which emerges; the second is that which brings about the emergence. The next two are the pair of the dependent and primary [retributions]: the first is the primary retribution; the subsequent sustaining is the dependent retribution. The next two are the pair of the eternal and the all-pervasive: nirvāṇa is eternal; the dharmadhātu is all-pervasive. The next two are the pair of manifesting and abiding: responding and appearing within the mind; abiding in samādhi without attachment. The last two are the pair of essence and function: the first has an immovable essence; the second has a function filling the dharmadhātu. Other approaches are as explained separately. Furthermore, the Dharmasaṃgīti Sūtra states: 'A bodhisattva who enters into ten kinds of dharmas can know all Buddhas. What are the ten? Namely: the Buddha of latent dispositions, the Buddha of karmic retribution, the Buddha of samādhi, the Buddha of vows, the Buddha of mind, the Buddha of truth, the Buddha of identity, the Buddha of transformation, the Buddha of offerings, and the Buddha of images'—and so on at length. Fifth, 'there are ten kinds of Buddha-actions': the preceding explained the essence of the Buddha seen; now it determines the causes for attaining Buddhahood. Furthermore, this initiating of practice accords with the Buddha, and is therefore called 'Buddha-action'. Each has a title and an explanation. The first generally concerns transforming sentient beings; the next two reveal practices for the benefit of oneself; the next two concern transforming sentient beings particularly: first, transforming those fettered by regret; second, transforming ordinary and small minds; the next two are practices of protecting the Dharma in evil times: first, when the true Dharma is in difficulty; second, when māra-affairs arise; 8. not taking a small fruit; 9. not severing the original vow; 10. accomplishing unhindered practice. Within this are seven clauses: 1. seeking the Path without obstructing detachment; 2. from 'with respect to the Tathāgata' downward, stainlessness without obstructing seeking; 3. from 'causing all' downward, adorning lands without obstructing emptiness; 4. from 'transforming' downward, converting sentient beings without obstructing non-existence; 5. from 'all supernormal powers' downward, being complete with fruits without abandoning causes; 6. from 'manifesting' downward, showing perfection without abandoning fractions; 7. from 'manifesting great' downward, manifesting quiescence without obstructing birth. The above fifty clauses explaining the accomplishment of practice by leaving behind obstructions are concluded. Second, from 'there are ten kinds of actions of conceit' downward, fifty [clauses] explain practice supported by empowerment through leaving behind obstructions. Within this, the first twenty internally accomplish practices that leave behind obstructions; the latter thirty distinguish practices of external empowerment. In the former, the first ten present obstructions; the latter ten show antidotes. Among the former, 'actions of conceit' take grasping onto the self and elevating oneself while demeaning others as their activity: first, despising others; next two, slighting the Dharma; 4. elevating oneself; 5. envying others; 6. slandering the Dharma; 7. self-reliance; 8. seeking faults in the teacher; 9. inability to inquire; 10. explains conceit obstructing the Path. Second, 'there are ten kinds of actions of wisdom' reveals practices of antidotes: namely, having recognized obstructing defilements and not allowing them to increase, turning one's feelings to accord with principle, and revering the practice of the Dharma; hence they are called 'actions of wisdom'. The first two are having faith in the Dharma and mindfulness of the Buddha; the next two are drawing near to others and delighting in the Dharma; the next two are revering others and purifying oneself; the next two are according with principle and valuing practice; the last two are accomplishing virtues and extinguishing defilements; all are called so because they are the functions of this wisdom. Second, from 'there are those sustained by ten māras' downward, thirty distinguish practices of external empowerment. The first ten explain empowerment by hostile obstructions, which are the obstructions to be eliminated; the latter twenty explain empowerment by Buddhas and Dharmas, which are the practices capable of serving as antidotes. In the former, because internal practice contravenes principle, external māras find an opening; hence it is called 'sustained'. Furthermore, practice contravening principle is itself being sustained by māra. The first two are a lazy mind abandoning the Dharma; the next two are giving rise to greed and saving oneself; the next two are abandoning vows and giving rise to [the view of] annihilation; the next two are accomplishing the small and abandoning the great; the last two are abandoning compassion and slandering the Dharma. Second, 'there are ten sustainments by the Buddha': once separated from sustainment by māra, there is empowerment by the Buddha; turning away from the heterodox and entering the orthodox is logically fitting. The first two are sustainment in terms of mind; the next two are sustainment in terms of initiating practice; the next two are sustainment in terms of compassion and wisdom: 1. compassion, 2. wisdom; the next two are sustainment in terms of skillful wisdom: 1. skillfulness, 2. wisdom; the last two are sustainment in terms of wisdom and eradication: 1. eradication, 2. wisdom. All these are sustained by the Buddha's power, causing one to accomplish these practices. Third, 'there are ten kinds of sustainment by the Dharma': abandoning faults and following the Dharma, hence it constitutes sustainment. The first four are the four dharmamudrās; the next two are the twelvefold dependent arising; the next two are the three vehicles;
