The three sorts of miraculous powers, as found in Bṭ3 UT23703-093-001-1943: “(1) the miracles of meditative stabilization, (2) wonder-working miracles, and (3) dharma-illuminating miracles. Among them, the miracles of meditative stabilization are twofold based on two meditative stabilizations: the miracles of the meditative stabilization called the samādhirāja meditative stabilization, and the miracles of the meditative stabilization called siṃhavikrīḍita. There are also two wonder-working miracles: wonder-working by magically creating [a great tower out of flowers], and wonder-working by sustaining [it up in the air and so on]. And there are two dharma-illuminating miracles as well: the miracle of teaching in [many] world systems, and the miracle of assembling a retinue.”
