12.7

第八復有無量遍淨天，明不動地菩薩。明此天憂苦已無，唯有禪悅，像此位菩薩功用已終，唯有法悅。法悅習氣，十地始無。此天風災至。為有禪悅喜動其性，像此位菩薩無功智現前，猶有無生法樂智淨習氣。以諸佛三加七種勸發，令憶本願，方始隨智行，廣利眾生，十方世界度生無限。此乃如來設教防之，防護初發心之際圓融悲智。非獨是此位方有滯淨之功，是一即一切中防護也。望七地中方事總具，何得第八地中佛果知見猶自未終，還以十玄六相通融？不可違法界體作前後解，凡夫妄作無量劫，只是法界中無始終。此位作如真金作輪王寶冠諸臣冠不勝喻，明八地法性無功智勝故。十力、四無畏猶十地方終，普賢行海十一地方滿。

Eighth, there are further immeasurable Śubhakṛtsna devas, illustrating bodhisattvas of the Immovable Ground. This illustrates that in this heaven sorrow and suffering are already gone and only the joy of dhyāna remains, resembling a bodhisattva of this stage whose effortful practice has ended and only the joy of the Dharma remains. The habit-energy of the joy of the Dharma is eliminated only at the tenth ground. The disaster of wind reaches this heaven. Because having the joy of dhyāna agitates their nature, this resembles a bodhisattva of this stage in whom effortless wisdom has become manifest, yet the subtle habit-energy of the wisdom and purity of the Dharma joy of non-arising still remains. When the Buddhas provide the three empowerments and sevenfold exhortations to make them recall their original vows, only then do they begin to act in accordance with wisdom, broadly benefiting sentient beings, liberating limitless sentient beings in the worlds of the ten directions. This is the Tathāgata establishing instruction to guard against this, guarding the complete fusion of compassion and wisdom at the moment of first resolving the mind. It is not only at this stage that the limitation of clinging to purity arises; it is a protection within 'one is all'. Seeing that all matters are fully equipped in the seventh ground, how could it be that in the eighth ground the vision and understanding of Buddha-fruition are still not concluded? This is again harmonized through the ten mysteries and six characteristics. One must not violate the essence of the dharmadhātu by interpreting it in terms of before and after; an ordinary person's false construction of immeasurable kalpas is simply without beginning or end within the dharmadhātu. This stage uses the metaphor of genuine gold made into the jeweled crown of a wheel-turning king, which no minister's crown can surpass, illustrating the supremacy of the effortless wisdom of the Dharma-nature on the eighth ground. The ten powers and four fearlessnesses are only concluded at the tenth ground, and the ocean of Samantabhadra's practices is only fulfilled at the eleventh ground.
