The Bodhisattvas’ skillfull walking ーA List from Vimalakīrtinirdesa Chapter 7. §1

For readers’ reference, here I present a comparison of three Chinese translation from Japanese Taiśotripitakaṃ.

Note 1. Comparing my translation(Section 2. FIg 2. of this article), (C) parts are merged to previous (B) and the (C) meaning is not clarified. Recent translations from Sanskrit ver. like this also ignore (C) part. Kumārajiva 26th row “一切衆生之所樂見” is only (C) part found within traditional Chinese translations.

Note 2. Concerning 17th row, Kumārajīva and Mokṣadeva translated“setu-saṃkrāma-bhṛtaś” into the active voice, but “bhṛtaś” is actually passive voice. Additionally, according to Google Gemini, “setu-saṃkrāma”  particularly means the bridge of Rama from Rāmāyaṇa episode “The battle of Lanka” . So this seems to mean “The skilled Bodhisattvas are insured the ferry by the whole world.” rather than “insure the bridge for the people.” Google Gemini conversation here.
