Fourth Assembly: Preached in the Yāma Palace, four chapters: 1. Ascending the Yāma Heaven (The Buddha ascended to this heaven, and they invited the Buddha to enter the palace). 2. Verses of Praise in the Yāma [Heaven] (Guṇavana and others each spoke verses praising the Buddha. Bodhivana's verse says: 'The mind is like a skilled painter, / creating the various five aggregates; / in all the worlds, / there is nothing that surpasses name and form.' It also says: 'As is the mind, so is the Buddha; / as is the Buddha, so are sentient beings. / Mind, Buddha, and sentient beings— / these three are without distinction.' Also: 'If one wishes to fully know / all buddhas of the three times, / one should contemplate the nature of the Dharma realm: / all is created by mind alone'). 3. The Ten Practices (Spoken by Guṇavana). 4. The Ten Inexhaustible Treasuries (Spoken by Guṇavana).
