As a counteragent, one should instruct \[the practitioner\] to recollect the Buddha's merits. What is recollection? A mind of right mindfulness focuses on the Buddha's ten powers, four fearlessnesses, eighteen unshared \[qualities\], and sarvākārajñatā, perfectly illuminating the dharma realm, ever serene and unmoving, universally manifesting physical bodies, benefiting all, with merits immeasurable and inconceivable. When one recollects in this manner, that is the counteragent. Why is this? This recollection of the Buddha's merits produces mental factors from conditions in connection with supreme good dharmas, while evil thoughts and considerations produce mental factors from conditions in connection with evil dharmas. Good can destroy evil; therefore, one should recollect the reward Buddha (saṃbhogakāya). Just as an ugly and unintelligent person feels self-contempt and shame among handsome and greatly wise people, evil is likewise: in a good mind, shame and conscience naturally cause it to cease; focusing on the Buddha's merits, one extinguishes all obstacles thought after thought. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4.55) - [Next: 4.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4.57) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.4.56) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.4.56) · Pramāṇa
