The first means that the previous assemblies where the Dharma was expounded—in the ten directions, under the tree of awakening, in Universal Light, Trāyastriṃśa, Yāma, and so forth—have not dispersed at all; ascending here to expound is simultaneous with those. Therefore, horizontally pervading the ten directions and vertically running through the eight assemblies, the Dharma is expounded simultaneously, before and after, without obstruction. The remaining points are as expounded previously. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.7.7) - [Next: 7.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.7.9) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733~en-mt.7.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.7.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.7.8) · Pramāṇa
