Opening Passage of the Avatamsaka Sutra as chanted by the Da Huayen Monastery before dawn every morning. The Sutra describes the state of Enlightenment of the Buddha as Vairocana, being the fruit of perfection as well as the various spiritual practices of bodhisattvas. 42 stages of Enlightening Beings precede this state of perfection. The spiritual practice in each stage is unique and must be completed before proceeding to a higher stage.
