The eighth, the practice of the difficult-to-attain, is based on transcendent vows. Here practitioners perfect virtues that are difficult to attain and never abandon or weary of the vow of universal salvation. They understand that people do not really exist, yet they do not abandon them; they do not remain in the mundane world yet do not remain in transcendental nirvana either, always traveling back and forth to deliver others from the mundane to the transcendental. Practitioners observe all things to be ungraspable yet not nonexistent; they see things as they are, without neglecting their work of demonstrating the practices of enlightening activities wherever they are.
