Therefore a sūtra says: 'The three grades of the worthy and the ten grades of the holy abide in karmic fruition; only the Buddha alone dwells in the Pure Land.' How much more so when abiding on the ordinary ground and at the initial stage of mind: without the gates of auxiliaries to the Way, the correct Way has no means of being revealed on its own. Moreover, the practice of the six recollections can dispel demonic illusions, advance merits, and support and encourage good roots; the gates of the ten contemplations skilfully depart from greedy attachment, latently purify turbid thoughts, and secretly tally with the true source. All are essential fords for entering the Way and wonderful paths for cultivating dhyāna. They are like a cane possessing the strength to support in danger, or like a boat attaining the success of reaching the shore. When the strength is complete and the work is finished, both the boat and the cane are cast aside." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.1.63) - [Next: 1.65](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.1.65) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017~en-mt.1.64) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.1.64](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.1.64) · Pramāṇa
