There are two different sets of ten powers, those of the Buddha and those of bodhisattvas. Those of the Buddha consist of power from knowing right from wrong (sthānāsthānajñānabala); power from knowing the consequences of actions (karmavipākajñāna-); power from knowing the various inclinations (of living beings) (nānādhimuktijñāna-); power from knowing the various types (of living beings) (nānādhātujñāna-); power from knowing the degree of the capacities (of living beings) (indriyavarāvarajñāna-); power from knowing the path that leads everywhere (sarvatragāmīmpratipatjñāna-); power from knowing the obscuration, affliction, and purification of all contemplations, meditations, liberations, concentrations, and absorptions (sarvadhyānavimokṣasamādhisamāpattisaṃkleśavyavadānavyutthānajñāna-); power from knowing his own former lives (pūrvanivāsānusmṛtijñāna-); power from knowing deaths and future lives (cyutyutpattijñāna-); and power from knowing the exhaustion of defilements (āsravakṣayajñāna-). The latter set consists of the bodhisattva’s power of positive thought (āśayabala); power of high resolve (adhyāśaya-); power of application (prayoga-); power of wisdom (prajña-); power of prayer (praṇidhāna-); power of vehicle (yāna-); power of activities (caryā-); power of emanations (vikurvaṇa-); power of enlightenment (bodhi-); and power of turning the wheel of the Dharma (dharmacakrapravartaṇa-).
