八、此世他世樂禪。略說九種？一者神足變現調伏眾生禪；二者隨說調伏眾生禪；三者教誡變現調伏眾生禪；四者為惡眾生示惡趣禪；五者失辯眾生以辯饒益禪；六者失念眾生以念饒益禪；七者造不顛倒論，微妙讚頌摩得勒伽，為令正法久住世禪；八者世間技術義饒益攝取眾生，所謂書、數、算計資生方便法，如是等種種眾具禪；九者暫息惡趣放光明禪。

> Eighth: the dhyāna \[producing\] happiness in this world and the next. In brief, there are nine kinds: first, the dhyāna of subduing sentient beings through manifestations of supernormal power; second, the dhyāna of subduing sentient beings through expounding according with \[their capacities\]; third, the dhyāna of subduing sentient beings through manifestations of admonition; fourth, the dhyāna of displaying the evil destinies for the sake of evil sentient beings; fifth, the dhyāna of benefiting sentient beings who lack eloquence with eloquence; sixth, the dhyāna of benefiting sentient beings who lack mindfulness with mindfulness; seventh, the dhyāna of composing unperverted treatises, exquisitely praising the mātṛkās, in order to make the true Dharma abide long in the world; eighth, the dhyāna of benefiting and embracing sentient beings through worldly arts and technical meanings—namely, writing, mathematics, calculation, and expedient means for livelihood—these various implements; ninth, the dhyāna of temporarily suspending the evil destinies and emitting radiance.
