Furthermore, the Candrapradīpa-samādhi-sūtra says: 'The Buddha said: If a bodhisattva practices the gift of Dharma, there are ten kinds of benefits. What are the ten? First, abandoning evil matters. Second, being able to perform good deeds. Third, abiding in the Dharma of good persons. Fourth, purifying buddha-lands. Fifth, proceeding to the site of awakening. Sixth, relinquishing what is cherished. Seventh, subduing afflictions. Eighth, bestowing a share of merit upon sentient beings. Ninth, cultivating a mind of loving-kindness toward sentient beings. Tenth, seeing the Dharma and obtaining joy.'
