12.117

如是行者已下，第六明三業清淨，依於意樂清淨業轉世間功巧業皆得圓滿，所以偏明，第七地中功巧業滿者，凡是工巧營造必便功用所作事成，從初發心為利眾生學諸工巧依求財物擬行給施，乃至七地所學工巧方始妙成，以第七地功用究竟工巧成滿故也，佛讚則行不讚不行，如四地說，於第五住已得工巧，今至七地轉得圓滿，故三千世界共許為師，略不言除等位菩薩，以等位菩薩亦不相師故，第八地中諸靜慮等如異熟住不須加行任運現前，今此地中未能任運，如第八地異熟住故有功用，故諸靜慮等方能現前，由修行相現在前故，地持與此少異，彼之一切禪定菩提分法皆現在修而不受法報。

From "Such a practitioner..." downwards, the sixth [section] explains the purification of the three karmas: relying on the pure activities of resolute intention, worldly crafts and technical endeavors are all perfected. As to why the fulfillment of technical endeavors is specifically explained: in the seventh stage, technical endeavors are fulfilled because whenever crafts and technical endeavors are undertaken, effort is necessary to accomplish the deeds. From the initial aspiration, for the benefit of sentient beings, one studies all crafts and, relying on the seeking of wealth and material goods, intends to practice giving; it is only upon reaching the seventh stage that the crafts studied first attain wonderful completion, because in the seventh stage effort reaches its consummation and technical endeavors are brought to fulfillment. If praised by the Buddha, one practices them; if not praised, one does not, as explained in the fourth stage. In the fifth dwelling one had already acquired crafts, and now upon reaching the seventh stage, they become further perfected; therefore, throughout the three-thousandfold world system, one is universally acknowledged as a master. It omits mentioning 'excluding bodhisattvas of equal stage', because bodhisattvas of equal stage also do not take one another as masters. In the eighth stage, dhyānas and so forth spontaneously manifest without requiring preparation, like a dwelling in maturation; now in this stage, one is not yet able to act spontaneously, and because it is not yet like the dwelling in maturation of the eighth stage, it involves effort, so that dhyānas and so forth are then able to manifest before one, owing to the marks of cultivation manifesting before one. The Bodhisattvabhūmi is slightly different from this: there, all meditative stabilizations and factors of awakening are presently cultivated without experiencing karmic retribution.
