I also ripen beings through manifesting physical bodies.

I gladden & ripen beings through manifesting countless pure colors, shapes, and forms & through radiating a net of light rays.

I speak to them in accordance with their aspirations.

I manifest whatever path of conduct they delight in.

I teach them the Dharma in accordance with their various wishes.

I manifest various forms of miracles so as to inspire beings who have not been attentive in accumulating virtuous qualities.

I manifest a variety of countless emanations in accordance with their wishes.

I gather & ripen beings by manifesting forms that accord with the states of the beings born in the various classes of existence & by living with them in the same place.

What is Devotion?
(Skt. adhimukti; Tib. མོས་གུས་, mögü)

To cultivate devotion, we must understand what real devotion is. It's not mindless adoration or abdication of responsibility to ourselves or following someone else's personality or whim. Real devotion is an unbroken receptivity to the truth, rooted in an awed and reverent gratitude that is lucid and grounded in intelligence.

When the master opens your inner heart, you will feel a wave of gratefulness sweep through you toward this one who has helped you see. That uncontrived feeling - repeated clarity of direct recognition - is always rooted in repeated experience: repeated clarity of direct recognition; this is what we call devotion; mö gü means "longing and respect.”

Mara, upon being defeated by Buddha, asked the Enlightened one: "but how?", to which Buddha answered "lol" and "lmao"

“Subhuti, imagine a person with an immense, perfect body whose self-existence is like that of Mount Sumeru. What do you think, Subhuti? Would such self-existence be great?” Subhuti replied, “Great, indeed, Bhagavan. Such self-existence would be great, Sugata. And why? Because self-existence, Bhagavan, ‘self-existence’ is said by the Tathagata to be no existence. Thus is it called ‘self-existence.’ Because, Bhagavan, it is neither existence nor no existence. Thus is it called ‘self-existence.’"
