In the general clause above, because he attained the samādhi he received special empowerment; now the question inquires: this samādhi is so superior, how could he attain it? From 'Specifically showing below' onward, it answers that there are two causes: First, past vows are deep and weighty, meaning that while in the causal stage he made vows wishing to realize the wisdom-radiance samādhi of the ten grounds, so now he attains it. Second, present conditions, which are the merits gathered by the samādhi-body. If the present body lacked virtue, even with past vows, he could not enter. However, all bodhisattvas are endowed with this virtue; revealing the Dharma in accordance with the specific approach rests upon Vajragarbha, so it is uniquely said that he possesses it. Furthermore, according to the Buddha's power being able to empower even grass and trees, why must one have virtue? It is because he wishes to cause bodhisattvas to advance in practice and be endowed with virtue, so that only by tallying above with the Buddha's mind can they receive empowerment, expressing that the Dharma of this ground must be realized before it can be expounded. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 54.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.54.12) - [Next: 54.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.54.14) - [Up: 54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.54) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736~en-mt.54.13) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.54.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1736.54.13) · Pramāṇa
