The lower fascicle of the Mahāyāna Upāyakauśalya Sūtra says: 'According to his original vows, when dwelling in the Tuṣita heavenly palace, the bodhisattva is able to attain bodhi and turn the wheel of the Dharma; it is not that he cannot. The bodhisattva reflects: "People of Jambudvīpa cannot reach this Tuṣita Heaven to hear and receive the Dharma teachings, but the devas of Tuṣita can descend to Jambudvīpa." Therefore, he descends to be born.' 1. Universally extricating all sufferings; 2. everywhere alerting those with karmic affinity; 3. adorning the lands and selecting the right setting; 4. awakening all guides and attendants; 5. secretly summoning guards; 6. first announcing to those of suitable capacity; 7. letting supporters know; 8. purifying the place of birth; 9. prolonging heavenly lifespans; 10. extensively manifesting the inconceivable. (From here on, this enters the fifty-ninth fascicle of the sūtra). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 53.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.53.21) - [Next: 53.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.53.23) - [Up: 53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.53) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735~en-mt.53.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.53.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1735.53.22) · Pramāṇa
