1.20

"Having seen the Buddhas, he gives rise to joy in his heart and speaks these words: 'Because of the Mahāyāna, I was able to see the Great Being; by the power of the Great Being, I was able to see the Buddhas. Although I have seen the Buddhas, it is still not fully clear: when I close my eyes I see them, but when I open my eyes I lose them.' Having spoken these words, he casts his five limbs to the ground and bows everywhere to the Buddhas of the ten directions. Having bowed to the Buddhas, he kneels on his right knee with palms joined and speaks these words: 'The Buddha World-Honoured Ones possess the ten powers, fearlessnesses, eighteen unshared dharmas, great compassion and pity, the three foundations of mindfulness, and are ever in the world as the supreme form among forms. What sin do I have that prevents me from seeing them?' Having spoken these words, he repents again.
