a2 | ... directed towards death. The Bodhisattvas have five powers. |
a2+ | The power of faith, that in all births... to the virtuous |
a3 | ... his mind is... at someone else... The power of force, that in all births he is venerated by the virtuous. |
a3+ | ... good behavior... he has... |

b4+ | The notion of death and emptiness (is a good friend of the) Bodhisattvas. |
b5 | Eight things are equally to be avoided by the Bodhisattvas. Imperiousness and arrogance, enemies of compassion, are to be avoided by the Bodhisattvas. Inertia... |
