2.5

"Regarding the third, the supernatural samādhi of going everywhere to all lands: one enters this samādhi in dust-realms of the ten directions for varying lengths of time, from a single kṣaṇa up to inexpressible kalpas, without giving rise to discrimination regarding whether it is a phenomenon or a timely phenomenon. Regarding the fourth, the samādhi of the practice of a pure, deep mind: one knows that the number of the Buddha's bodies equals that of sentient beings, and pays reverence, honours, respects, and bows with the head, casting one's whole body on the ground, inquiring about the Dharma and praising it before all buddhas; one completely comprehends all this in a single thought-moment without discriminating either. Whether they abide in the world or enter nirvāṇa, arising from samādhi one retains and remembers it without forgetting. Regarding the fifth, the samādhi of the treasury of adornment knowing the past: one is able to know all kalpas, all lands, what all buddhas preach, what all dharmas preach, the joy in their minds, the taming of their faculties, the buddhas' lifespans, and their successive sequence without loss; within this samādhi, one can enter a hundred kalpas up to inexpressible kalpas. Regarding the sixth, the samādhi of the treasury of the radiance of wisdom: one can know all future phenomena, knowing all kalpas in a single thought-moment. Regarding the seventh, the samādhi of thoroughly knowing the adornments of buddhas in all worlds: one can sequentially and universally enter worlds of the ten directions, see the assemblies of the supernatural powers of the buddhas' appearance in the world—assemblies ranging in size from being equal to the four continents up to filling inexpressibly many buddha-lands' dust-mote numbers of buddha-lands—and also see one's own body preaching the Dharma there and performing all buddha-works; one also sees that the buddhas' bodies are distinct, their colours and measurements each different, obtaining the ten kinds of swiftness, the ten kinds of Dharma-seals, and so forth."
