12.6

第七復有無量光音天王，明遠行地。如此二禪天，初禪滅憂，二禪滅苦。明此位菩薩在七地，諸行已終，大悲圓滿，四攝、四無量、十波羅蜜、三十七助道法常在現行。自苦已無，常度他苦，染淨二障此位通過，譬如真金飾以眾妙雜寶轉更殊勝，明以法身為金體，悲智萬行圓滿為眾妙寶互為莊嚴，常以行網教光普化一切眾生故，故像此天已滅憂苦。以心淨故，出語口中光生，用明此位菩薩教光破暗故。於此有十大光音天，以明方便波羅蜜中十波羅蜜，各各名下義配之可解。此天身長二由旬，壽二劫，此天水災至。

Seventh, there are further immeasurable Ābhāsvara deva kings, illustrating the Ground of Far-Reaching Practice. As in this second dhyāna heaven, the first dhyāna eliminates sorrow, and the second dhyāna eliminates suffering. This illustrates that for a bodhisattva of this stage on the seventh ground, all practices have been completed, great compassion is perfected, and the four means of embracing, four immeasurables, ten pāramitās, and thirty-seven factors of awakening are constantly active. Personal suffering is already gone, and they constantly liberate others from suffering; both the defiled and pure obstacles are overcome at this stage. It is like genuine gold adorned with a variety of wondrous jewels becoming ever more superior, illustrating that with the dharmakāya as the substance of the gold, the myriad practices of compassion and wisdom fully perfected serve as the various wondrous jewels mutually adorning it; constantly using the net of practice and the light of teaching to universally transform all sentient beings, they therefore resemble this heaven in having already eliminated sorrow and suffering. Because the mind is pure, when they speak, light is emitted from their mouths, illustrating that the light of teaching of a bodhisattva of this stage destroys darkness. Here there are ten great Ābhāsvara devas, illustrating the ten pāramitās within the skillful means pāramitā; each can be understood by correlating it to the meaning of its name. The body of a deva here is two yojanas tall, their lifespan is two kalpas, and the disaster of water reaches this heaven.
