3.17

From “Which ones?” onwards is the second, generally establishing the number ten. From “Which ones are the ten numbers?” onwards is the third, listing the names individually. The treatise says: because they correspond to the ten obstructions, the ten names arise. Herein are two: first, listing the names; second, from “Why is this?” onwards, explaining them. The two practices are accomplished. Initially realizing the holy stage, it is called Joyous (Pramuditā). Leaving behind the intentional mind of breaking the precepts, it is called Immaculate (Vimalā). The light of wisdom illuminating phenomena so they become manifest, it is called Luminous Ground (Prabhākarī). The fire of wisdom burning the firewood of afflictions, it is called Radiant Ground (Arciṣmatī). Supramundane wisdom and skillful expedients, it is called Difficult to Conquer Ground (Sudurjayā). Great wisdom manifesting directly, it is called Manifest Ground (Abhimukhī). Practicing signlessness to its culmination, able to surpass the grounds of the two vehicles, it is called Far-Reaching Ground (Dūraṅgamā). Retributive practice being fully matured, signless and without selection, it is called Immovable (Acalā). Preaching the Dharma with unimpeded power, it is called Good Wisdom (Sādhumatī). Attaining the great dharmakāya, possessing mastery completely, it is called Cloud of Dharma (Dharmameghā).
