Ten Deeds in Tuṣita Heaven Complete
The final five deeds move from subduing Pāpīyas, lord of the māras, to a wondrous display staged inside deva delight itself — the devas grow intoxicated with joy, and from within that very joy hear that every conditioned formation is impermanent and suffering. Offerings made without leaving the palace and dharma-gates as insubstantial as a shadow close the list before the bodhisattva descends to birth among humans.
Renunciation Spoken from Within Delight
The seventh deed stages its teaching inside pleasure rather than against it: the devas are drawn in by a promised spectacle, grow intoxicated with the joy of what they see, and only then, from within that very intoxication, hear that every conditioned formation is impermanent and suffering — the teaching arriving not as an interruption of their delight but as a voice speaking out from the middle of it.
菩薩摩訶薩住兜率天時，欲界主天魔波旬，為欲壞亂菩薩業故，眷屬圍遶詣菩薩所；爾時，菩薩為摧伏魔軍故，住金剛道所攝般若波羅蜜方便善巧智慧門，以柔軟、麁獷二種語而為說法，令魔波旬不得其便；魔見菩薩自在威力，皆發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心。是為第六所作業。菩薩摩訶薩住兜率天，知欲界諸天子不樂聞法；爾時，菩薩出大音聲，遍告之言：『今日菩薩當於宮中現希有事，若欲見者宜速往詣。』時，諸天子聞是語已，無量百千億那由他皆來集會；爾時，菩薩見諸天眾皆來集已，為現宮中諸希有事；彼諸天子曾未見聞，既得見已，皆大歡喜，其心醉沒；又於樂中出聲告言：『諸仁者！一切諸行皆悉無常，一切諸行皆悉是苦，一切諸法皆悉無我，涅槃寂滅。』又復告言：『汝等皆應修菩薩行，皆當圓滿一切智智。』彼諸天子聞此法音，憂歎諮嗟而生厭離，靡不皆發菩提之心。是為第七所作業。
"While a bodhisattva-mahāsattva dwells in Tuṣita heaven, Pāpīyas, the lord of the māras of the desire realm, wishing to disrupt the bodhisattva's own deeds, comes to the bodhisattva's place surrounded by his retinue; at that time, the bodhisattva, in order to subdue the māra's own army, abides in the gate of skillful wisdom held by the diamond path's own prajñā-pāramitā, and teaches the dharma using both gentle and harsh speech, so that Pāpīyas can find no opening; the māras, seeing the bodhisattva's own sovereign, awesome power, all give rise to the mind of unsurpassed, perfect, complete awakening. This is the sixth deed. A bodhisattva-mahāsattva, dwelling in Tuṣita heaven, knows that the sons of the devas of the desire realm take no delight in hearing the dharma; at that time, the bodhisattva sends forth a great sound, universally proclaiming: 'Today the bodhisattva will manifest a rare and wondrous event within the palace; whoever wishes to see it should come quickly.' Having heard these words, measureless hundreds of thousands of koṭis of nayutas of those sons of the devas all come together in assembly; the bodhisattva, seeing that every deva assembly has gathered, manifests every rare and wondrous event within the palace; those sons of the devas, having never before seen or heard such things, upon seeing them, are all greatly joyful, their minds intoxicated and immersed in delight; and then, from within that very delight, the bodhisattva sends forth a voice proclaiming: 'You worthy ones! Every conditioned formation is entirely impermanent; every conditioned formation is entirely suffering; every dharma is entirely without self; nirvāṇa is stillness and extinction.' And further proclaims: 'Every one of you should cultivate bodhisattva practice, and every one of you should bring the wisdom of all-knowing wisdom to its complete fulfillment.' Those sons of the devas, hearing this voice of dharma, sigh with grief and give rise to renunciation, and there is not one among them who does not give rise to the mind of awakening. This is the seventh deed.
菩薩摩訶薩住兜率宮，不捨本處，悉能往詣十方無量一切佛所，見諸如來親近禮拜恭敬聽法；爾時，諸佛欲令菩薩獲得最上灌頂法故，為說菩薩地，名：一切神通，以一念相應慧，具足一切最勝功德，入一切智智位。是為第八所作業。菩薩摩訶薩住兜率宮，為欲供養諸如來故，以大神力興起種種諸供養具，名：殊勝可樂，遍法界、虛空界、一切世界供養諸佛；彼世界中無量眾生見此供養，皆發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心。是為第九所作業。菩薩摩訶薩住兜率天，出無量無邊如幻如影法門，周遍十方一切世界，示現種種色、種種相、種種形體、種種威儀、種種事業、種種方便、種種譬諭、種種言說，隨眾生心皆令歡喜。是為第十所作業。佛子！是為菩薩摩訶薩住兜率天十種所作業。若諸菩薩成就此法，則能於後下生人間。
A bodhisattva-mahāsattva, dwelling in the Tuṣita palace, without ever leaving that original place, is able to go to the sites of every measureless buddha throughout the ten directions, drawing close to every tathāgata, prostrating before them, and reverently listening to the dharma; at that time, the buddhas, wishing to cause the bodhisattva to attain the most excellent dharma of consecration, expound for them a bodhisattva ground named All Spiritual Superknowledges, by which, through wisdom in accord with a single thought, they become complete in every most excellent merit and enter the stage of the wisdom of all-knowing wisdom. This is the eighth deed. A bodhisattva-mahāsattva, dwelling in the Tuṣita palace, wishing to make offerings to every tathāgata, through great spiritual power calls forth every kind of offering, named Surpassingly Excellent and Delightful, making offerings to every buddha throughout the dharma-realm, the realm of empty space, and every world; measureless sentient beings within those worlds, seeing these offerings, all give rise to the mind of unsurpassed, perfect, complete awakening. This is the ninth deed. A bodhisattva-mahāsattva, dwelling in Tuṣita heaven, brings forth measureless, boundless dharma-gates exactly like an illusion and exactly like a shadow, pervading every world throughout the ten directions, manifesting every kind of form, every kind of mark, every kind of physical shape, every kind of dignified bearing, every kind of deed, every kind of skillful means, every kind of analogy, and every kind of speech, causing every sentient being's own mind, whatever it may be, to rejoice. This is the tenth deed. Son of the Buddha! These are the ten deeds a bodhisattva-mahāsattva carries out while dwelling in Tuṣita heaven. If bodhisattvas accomplish this dharma, they are thereafter able to descend and take birth among humans.
不捨本處，悉能往詣十方無量一切佛所 — without ever leaving that original place, being able to go to the sites of every measureless buddha throughout the ten directions. The eighth deed repeats a claim already made about the bodhisattvas of Part 789's fourth deed: presence in one place and activity everywhere are not treated as requiring a choice between them.
