### [8.184](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.8.184)

爾時文殊師利菩薩白世尊曰。此諸菩薩大士雲集。欲聽世尊不思議法。如是三昧億千那由他。如今如來入何三昧。居於胎舍。與諸大士說不思議法。佛告文殊。汝今觀察一住二住乃至十住一生補處諸方菩薩。各當其位勿相雜錯。今此大眾清淨無雜。寄生枝葉亦無穢惡。今此座上無有一人雜穢惡者有退轉者。所以者何。是利根不處生死。

> At that time Mañjuśrī Bodhisattva said to the World-Honoured One: 'These Bodhisattva mahāsattvas have gathered like clouds, wishing to hear the inconceivable Dharma of the World-Honoured One. There are hundreds of thousands of nayutas of such samādhis; in what samādhi does the Tathāgata now abide, dwelling in the womb-house and preaching the inconceivable Dharma to these Great Beings?' The Buddha told Mañjuśrī: 'Observe now the Bodhisattvas of various directions from the first abode, second abode, up to the tenth abode, and those in their last life before Buddhahood; each occupies their proper position without being mixed up. Now this great assembly is pure and unmixed, and its sheltering branches and leaves are also without defilement or evil. Now among this assembly, there is not a single person who is defiled or evil, or who is subject to retrogression. Why is this? They are of sharp faculties and do not abide in saṃsāra.'
