Sixth, differences in functioning and activity: generally distinguishing the function of concentration, there are three kinds: first, giving rise to wisdom; second, inducing supernormal powers; third, possessing both. Among these seven concentrations, either it solely gives rise to wisdom, namely the remaining five assemblies excluding the first and the last, because all arise from concentration to generate wisdom and preach. Or it solely induces supernormal powers, namely the eighth assembly, because it manifests the dharmadhātu gate of the Tathāgata's unobstructed body and land. Or it possesses both kinds, namely the first assembly, where Samantabhadra preaches the Dharma while in concentration, which is also a supernormal power.
