Regarding the treatise's statement, "Right within the flow of the dharma-gates, they receive the awakening and admonishment of the Tathāgatas, and are bestowed with the wisdom, spiritual powers, and activities of countless doors of induction": In this bhūmi, the Buddhas of the ten directions carry out great admonishment, urging this bodhisattva, as extensively explained in the sūtra. Question: The bodhisattva in this stage is effortless; why do they require admonishment? The meaning is: having already attained the signless, it is said that they mostly abide in the signless and do not delight in progressive cultivation. The Buddhas give seven admonishments to cause them to arouse the signless contemplation; having aroused the signless contemplation, it is spontaneous like maturation (vipāka), naturally advancing in excellence without waiting for effort.
