"Moreover, within all those Buddhas' Dharma, he leaves the home-life to cultivate the Way. He then even more cultivates and regulates his deep mind of faith and understanding.
Passing though limitless hundreds of thousands of millions of nayutas of kalpas, he causes all of his good roots to become increasingly bright and pure.
Disciples of the Buddha, it is just as when a goldsmith smelts and refines true gold, making it into ornaments: no other gold is able to match it. The Bodhisattva Mahasattva is also that way.
When he dwells upon this Ground, all of his good roots cannot be matched by any of the good roots of the Grounds below. It is just like a mani jewel, whose pure and luminous orb is able to send out light which no other jewels can match, and no factors such as wind or rain and so forth are able to destroy.
The Bodhisattva Mahasattva also is that way. When he dwells upon this Ground, the Bodhisattvas of the Grounds below are not able to match him, and the hordes of demons and afflictions all cannot destroy him." ~ Flower Adornment sutra
