Two-fold benefit

The two-fold benefit (Skt. dvārtha; Wyl. don gnyis) — in general:

• the benefit of self (Skt. svārtha; Tib. rang dön; Wyl. rang don), and
• the benefit of others (Skt. parārtha; Tib. shyendön; Wyl. gzhan don).

In particular, according to Maitreya's Uttaratantra Shastra, all of the qualities of a buddha can be condensed into the two-fold benefit of self and others, which are further subdivided into eight qualities:

Benefit of self:

• 1) self-arisen wisdom
• 2) unconditioned body
• 3) spontaneously perfect

Benefit of others:

• 4) knowledge (Skt. jñāna; Tib. khyen; Wyl. mkhyen)
• 5) love (Skt. karuṇā; Tib. tsé; Wyl. brtse)
• 6) power (Skt. śakti; Tib. nüpa; Wyl. nus pa)

And

• 7) the benefit of self (Skt. svārtha; Tib. rang dön; Wyl. rang don), and
• 8) the benefit of others (Skt. parārtha; Tib. shyendön; Wyl. gzhan don).
