The śāstra states: "In this way, the bodhisattva diligently trains in the three kinds of samādhi"—this encourages training. "And understands this establishment as it truly is"—this concludes the previous direct explanation of the three gates of liberation, and also concludes the meaning of neither increasing nor decreasing. "Awakens to and enters into other samādhis of active characteristics as they truly are"—by understanding these gates of liberation explained here, one awakens to and enters into the other active characteristics as they truly are, being fully able to understand them. "Awakens to and enters into the principle of arrangement as it truly is"—this is the initial awakening to and entering into the true three gates of liberation. "Understands the principle of cultivation as it truly is"—this encourages the cultivation of the methods of samādhi. Therefore, the subsequent re-explanation states: "namely, the assemblies of śrāvakas among them diligently train"—this is the practice of training; "and fully realize"—this is awakening and entering. There are further distinct explanations, which can be understood upon reflection.
