Furthermore, regarding these bodhisattvas:
They have the power to continuously display
Within each pore of their own bodies numberless
Awakened buddhas with their bodhisattva hosts,
As well as humans, demigods and gods alike. (11.9)
The bodhisattvas who have developed the tenth resolve are able to display within each pore of their body, and without any conceptual effort, innumerable illustrious buddhas and their pure realms presiding over immeasurable retinues of bodhisattvas, and can alter these appearances every moment. Furthermore, in each instant they have the power to display within each of their pores, the five types of beings of samsara, humans and so forth, without any confusion between them. The words as well as (api) include also other beings not mentioned, as when it states, ‘… Indra, Brahma, the world-guardians (lokapāla), kings of men, hearers, solitary buddhas – the Tathāgata assumes the forms of Indra and so forth to teach the Dharma to beings receptive to the training.’1
Detailed descriptions of the qualities may be found in the same sutra.2
