Ninth, the three gates below "definitive dharmas" answer the question on unobstructedness. First, clarifying that what is done is definitive and nothing can obstruct it: this is said to be definitive with reference to one class of worlds; in different classes of worlds it is not necessarily so. Furthermore, it is called definitive because the Buddha definitely has the capacity to do it. Second, the rapid dharmas clarify causing others to be unobstructed. Like the wish-fulfilling jewel, seeing it brings quick benefit, yet those of meager merit do not behold it. There are ten phrases in five pairs: first, leaving evil destinies and perfecting supreme virtues; second, accomplishing good causes and experiencing pleasant fruits; third, removing doubt and fulfilling the great mind; fourth, beginning by entering the stations and ultimately attaining purity; fifth, purifying the two hindrances and possessing the four forms of eloquence. Third, what should be mindfully remembered with purity cites the Buddha's freedom from the two hindrances to encourage beings to bear [him] in mind.
