第二、明觀禪功用之法者，佛弟子既得此三番觀行，若欲為化眾生，現希有事，令心清淨，應當廣修一切神通道力，所謂：六通、十四變化、四辯、無諍三昧、願智、頂禪、自在定、鍊禪、十八變化等諸大功德，皆應住此背捨、勝處、一切處中學。既學得已，令多眾生覩見歡喜，信伏得度，故修神變。

Second, as for explaining the methods of the functional application of contemplative dhyāna: after the Buddha's disciples have attained these three rounds of contemplative practice, if they wish to manifest rare marvels in order to transform sentient beings and purify their minds, they should extensively cultivate all the powers of the Path of supernormal knowledges—namely: the six supernormal knowledges, the fourteen transformations, the four analytical knowledges, the araṇa-samādhi, the knowledge of vows, the summit dhyāna, the mastery absorption, the smelted dhyāna, the eighteen transformations, and other such great merits; all of these should be studied while abiding in these liberations, stations of mastery, and totality spheres. Having learned them, they cause many sentient beings to see them and rejoice, and to faithfully submit and attain deliverance; therefore, they cultivate supernormal transformations.
