A Rākṣasa King Named Good Eye

Whenever buddhas arise in the world, there is a rākṣasa king, guardian of the bodhisattvas' own Dharma-hall, named Good Eye; together with his own wife and children, and surrounded by ten thousand rākṣasa retinue, he appeared in the sky, scattering every kind of sublime flower, and said to Sudhana: "Good man, if there is a bodhisattva who accomplishes ten dharmas, he is thereby able to draw near to every good and wise friend. What are these ten? Namely: an upright mind, pure, departing far from flattery and crookedness; unbroken great compassion, gathering in sentient beings; contemplating that sentient beings have no true, fixed nature, and yet never retrogressing in the mind set on omniscience; attaining firm faith and power before the great assembly of buddhas; with a pure eye of wisdom, contemplating the nature of every dharma; unbroken great compassion, universally covering sentient beings; the bright, pure light of wisdom, thoroughly understanding every Dharma-realm; skillfully countering every dharma, raining down clouds of ambrosia, extinguishing the suffering of birth-and-death; according with good and wise friends; and, with a bright, pure eye, contemplating the nature of every dharma in unbroken continuity. A bodhisattva who accomplishes these ten dharmas is thereby able to draw near to every good and wise friend."
