The Ten Levels - List

Complete enlightenment occurs following the end of the tenth level, and is therefore known as the eleventh level or the bhumi of universal radiance.
The ten levels are also related to the ten perfections. For example, the first perfection of generosity is emphasized on the first level, the second perfection of discipline is emphasized on the second level, and so on.
There are twenty-two knots between the central channel and the two lateral channels. As they become freed, pair by pair, the meditator attains the successive level, from the first to the eleventh, up to buddhahood.
They should be regarded as landmarks, points of reference on a map, rather than than events.
