12.26
Sixth, clarifying the distinct fruits attained, there are roughly three kinds: first, based on the Liang treatise, the fourth bhūmi's penetration of the dharmadhātu without appropriation attains the fruit of benefiting sentient beings; second, the Suvarṇaprabhāsa Sūtra says: "Generating the mind on the fourth bhūmi attains the fruit of irreversible samādhi." Ancient masters explained: the fourth bhūmi resembles the supramundane, and because it is first realized, it is marked as irreversible; third, the practices of suppleness, etc., and the retributions embraced by the ten kings, may all be known by analogy.
