6.91
"Cultivating this samādhi, one obtains ten kinds of benefit in one's present body: first, one is constantly protected and kept in mind by the Buddhas and bodhisattvas of the ten directions; second, one is not harassed or disrupted by all demons and evil ghosts; third, one is not deluded by any heterodox paths; fourth, one causes the heavy karmic obstacles of the grave sin of slandering the profound Dharma to become slight and thin; fifth, one extinguishes all doubts and all evil thoughts and reflections; sixth, one's faith in the realm of the Tathāgata grows; seventh, one departs far from sorrow and remorse, becoming courageous and unfearing in saṃsāra; eighth, one departs far from arrogance, becomes gentle and patient, and is constantly respected by all the world; ninth, even if one does not abide in absorption, at all times and in all circumstances, seeds of affliction are thin and never become active; tenth, if one abides in absorption, one is not moved or disrupted by any conditions such as sounds."
