The seven inferior points are: (1) inferior position (initial mind of the ten faiths); (2) inferior internal perfuming (powerless); (3) inferior wholesome roots (slight and meager); (4) inferior time limit (not having passed ten thousand kalpas); (5) inferior external conditions (seeing the Buddha through form and marks); (6) inferior generated practice (humans, gods, and the two vehicles); and (7) inferior culmination (regressing into ordinary people and the two vehicles). The seven supreme points are: (1) supreme position (fulfillment of the stage of the ten faiths); (2) supreme internal perfuming (powerful); (3) supreme wholesome roots (having long planted the roots of virtue); (4) supreme time limit (having passed ten thousand kalpas); (5) supreme external conditions (meeting Buddhas and receiving teachings); (6) supreme generated practice (the straightforward, deep, and compassionate \[minds\]); and (7) supreme culmination (correctly determined and non-regressing). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 16.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.16.55) - [Next: 16.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.16.57) - [Up: 16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.16) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848~en-mt.16.56) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.16.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.16.56) · Pramāṇa
