1.9

Regarding "Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa": The Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa translates it as Vulture Peak. Paramārtha states, "Mount Quniao is southeast of Rājagṛha, Mount Vipula is southwest, Mount Ṛṣi is northwest, Mount Heitu is northeast, and Mount Baitu is in the center. The center, three yojanas in extent, is flat and even, which is the royal city." In the contemplation of the mind: as for the mountain, the spiritual is spiritual wisdom, which is prajñā; the vulture is the myriad virtues, which is liberation; the mountain is unmoving, which is the Dharmakāya. Constantly contemplated by the mind-king, this is the dwelling place of contemplation, causing all mental factors to enter together into it.
