Summary

The Buddha, while in Jetavana, teaches Manjushri and a large assembly about ten aspects of practice for bodhisattvas. These aspects include generosity, keeping precepts, patience, diligence, meditation, wisdom, understanding, upholding the Dharma, practicing emptiness, solitary practice, secluded practice and proper conduct. Each of these practices are further described with ten specific qualities or benefits. Upon hearing this discourse, many individuals achieve enlightenment and the assembly rejoices in the Buddha's teachings. (AI generated)
