c8.s7.4

² Cf. B. Bh., p. 16. The Mtu. (p. 110) says that the citta of a bodhisattva when passing from the fourth to the fifth bhūmi realises "ādīptam sarvabhavam rāgadveṣamohebhyah". But this is mentioned in the Daśa. in connection with the 3rd. bhūmi (see ante, p. 267). The account of the Sata. is also different and speaks only of some disciplinary rules. It says that in this bhūmi a bodhisattva avoids gṛhisamstava, bhikṣuṇī-saṃstava, kulamātsarya, saṃgaṇikāsthāna, ātmotkarṣaṇa, vyāpāda, parapamśana, daśākuśalakarmapathā, māna, stambha, viparyāsa, rāga, dveṣa and moha. (Sata., pp. 1456, 1463-5).
