As for the ten practices: because giving merely brings about joy for oneself and others, the first is called the practice of joy. Because moral discipline brings about benefit for oneself and others, the second is called the practice of abundant benefit. Because patience brings about absence of anger and resentment for oneself and others, the third is called the practice of non-resentment. Because diligence brings about superior virtue, the fourth is called the practice of inexhaustibility. Because dhyāna-pāramitā is tranquil, the fifth is called the practice of freedom from confusion and distraction. Because prajñā's realized cognition of pratītyasamutpāda manifests before one, the sixth is called the practice of skillful manifestation. Because expedient means skillfully accomplishes the affairs of oneself and others, the seventh is called the practice of non-attachment. Because matters of aspiration are sovereign and can be accomplished at will, the eighth is called the practice of veneration. Because superior power is sovereign and matures sentient beings, the ninth is called the practice of wholesome dharmas. Because the three karmas benefit others and their actions are not in vain, being able to practice as one speaks and able to speak as one practices, the tenth is called the practice of truth. Undertaking and performing is the meaning of practice. This meaning resides in the Triyāna and does not extend to the Hīnayāna teaching. In the initial teaching it is identity with emptiness, in the final teaching it is identity with suchness, and it is what is aimed at by the Ekayāna teaching as well as being its expedient. Furthermore, the number is ten in order to reveal boundlessness, and it is thus subsumed under the Ekayāna. Question: The Triyāna also has the number ten; what is its difference from the Ekayāna? Answer: The number ten in the Triyāna conforms to the conventions of transformation according to conditions, having no distinct standard dharma. In the Ekayāna teaching, there is a distinct standard dharma. Furthermore, one should know that it is directly present within samādhi; its demarcations are completely different and ought to be known. The remaining meanings are in the separate chapter. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.58) - [Next: 2.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.60) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870~en-mt.2.59) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1870.2.59) · Pramāṇa
