RE: The Ten Stages of the Mahayana Bodhisattva Path

when one has reached the tenth stage (dharma megha bhumi) is there still a higher stage than this?
and what is the ultimate goal of all these accomplishments? Thanks for the explanation..

Sort:  

These are stages of attaining Buddhahood, in the Dasa Bhumika sutra the 10 tenth stage is the final stage. There are multiple sutras explaining the stages and they explain the Bhumis is different ways.

means only a few are able to reach up to level 10? extraordinary, Sufis too, the highest attainment of them is maqam tajalli

Yes only a few can attain Buddhahood, but the Buddhist text speak of past Buddha's, which are many...they discover the ancient Path and share what they have found with others. Once a Buddha's teachings die and are forgotten there will be another Buddha that discovers the ancient Path to enlightenment. It is a cycle....
