"If one has generated the mind of supreme bodhi, when first seeing the light of the seven Buddhas' white ūrṇās shining, the light of each Tathāgata's white ūrṇā divides into ten branches, transforming into ten jewel flowers, jewel trees, and jewel platforms arrayed in the air. At that time, the Buddhas of the ten directions also emit light and water, as described above, washing between the joints; within the light of each Buddha's white ūrṇā, they expound the eighteen Dharma doors of loving-kindness, the eighteen Dharma doors of great compassion, the eighteen Dharma doors of great sympathetic joy, and the eighteen Dharma doors of great equanimity. Having gradually increased their instruction, they cultivate the four immeasurables; having completed the four immeasurables, they expound for him the ten kinds of bright mind; having completed the bright mind, they instruct that form is emptiness and that emptiness is not the annihilation of form; having contemplated emptiness, they instruct in the six dharmas of a bodhisattva; having practiced the six dharmas, he practices the six mindfulnesses, being mindful of the Buddha's dharmakāya; having been mindful of the Buddha's dharmakāya, he gives rise to the mind of dedication; when dedication is accomplished, he establishes the four great vows not to abandon sentient beings; when the four vows are accomplished, he possesses the bodhisattva precepts; when the bodhisattva precepts are accomplished, he trains in and cultivates the conformity dāna-pāramitā; when dāna-pāramitā is accomplished, he trains in and cultivates the conformity ten pāramitās.
