འདི་ལ་ཆོས་ཉིད་ནི་འདི་ཡིན་ཏེ། དེ་ལ་འདི་སྐད་ཅེས་བྱའོ། །
“The concentration of a śrāvaka is surpassed by the concentration of a pratyekabuddha, the concentration of a pratyekabuddha is surpassed by the concentration of a bodhisatva, and the concentration of a bodhisatva is surpassed by the concentration of a buddha. The concentration of the Tathāgata cannot be surpassed. The knowledge of the Tathāgata cannot be surpassed. The Tathāgata knows how to instruct and how to give advice so that the śrāvaka develops concentration, and he will instruct and give advice according to this knowledge. Śāriputra, the Tathāgata’s power to know how the corruptions arise and are purified in the context of liberative meditative states, the attainments of concentration, is as boundless as space. When the bodhisatva learns of this, he develops faith, trust, and confidence, and he is without uncertainty and doubt. It brings him pleasure, joy, and satisfaction, and as this power is as inconceivable as space, he considers it to be truly wondrous and extraordinary.”
