Spontaneous Arts 小小人做的小小詩...
要踽踽獨行,
抑或行而踟躕,
動一念塵緣難清靜,
何不掌一花笑世界,
浮一木觀天堂,
葉枯如來自來,
砂盡淨土極樂。
似乎忘了人生的孤獨與等候是必然的
,在濁濁塵世,
放流的不是生命,
流放的卻是不可企及的遙遠夢想...
無盡無盡的憂思,
不悔不悔的前程,
是什麼樣什麼樣細膩心腸,
讓雲這麼白,
山這麼黑...
阿,是浮生啦!!
心飛揚,
心非徉,
段段雲彩並馴良...
夢裡委婉尋芳菲,
點點憔情向朝陽,
若要人間有紅蕊,
莫從仙山輕折迴...
美麗的浪漫愛情如詩,
郎才女貌的理想婚姻如歌,
一旦變幻莫測的雲 霧浪濤倏倏忽來,
千萬人澆於上,
流於上.
淚滴滴淚淚滴淚,
迷糊糊迷迷糊迷....

一輩子永遠難忘的小說...我的小小說
{篇一}
那一夜是35歲的生日前夕,
溫文儒雅的何老師在小麵攤把自己灌醉,
走向河水中,走入爛泥中,漸漸沉沒.....
隔天在醫院醒來,羞辱的發現自己沒死,
下一秒他離開病床,
決定不再因為同情而毅然搬出寡居的嫂嫂家,
回到學校找到媚上欺下的教務主任,拍桌子對罵,
拿出藤條把一直被班上投訴愛霸凌的學生毒打一頓,
下班後把譏諷他懦弱的女朋友押到器材室強吻....
從此他發現死去而未死的自己,
個性丕變,
全小鎮的人對他另眼相看,
竟解救了他垂暮欲墜的人生....
出生時算命先生說得好"35歲時...兇險阿,兇險"
(改編自許家石小說"35歲")
guban說:我們無法選擇出生,但可以改變人生....
{篇二}
這一路兩百公里的車程,我們沒說多少話,
當兩個人再也走不下去時,
牽字離婚似乎是最文明的方式,
我之所以願意跟著來,回到他出生的老家,
一方面貪圖的是沿途明媚的風光,
另一方面也是彰顯自己是個講道理的人....
晚上寒風蕭颯,午夜時分我從溫暖的臥室出來,
睡在寒氣逼人的客廳沙發的他,
卻在落地窗前兀自站立,光著腳,
我擔心的問了一下,為何不睡,不要受寒,
他卻頭也不回,娓娓細述小時被父親虐待的情形,
那雙凍紅的腳捲曲,淒冷的臉有兩行淚痕....
突然間那吵架時脾氣暴戾,身體顫抖,
亂甩東西的男人,逐漸縮小,縮小成一個孤獨無助的小男孩,
我也憶起了這個男人談戀愛時是多麼溫柔體貼...
隔天,回程我把手輕輕的放在他僵硬的右手
說:親愛的,我們重新開始,好嗎?
(改編自讀者文摘某年代久遠的小說)
guban說:生如何歡,死又如何憾,既不知死後世界,倒不如苛活今朝....

般若波羅蜜多心經Heart Sutra淺釋(東方哲學思想的至寶)
整個佛教信徒都唸過"心經",許多人拚命寫拚命唸,卻不知其中意思,其實"心經"260字中用了二十一個"無"與七個"空",這個"空"不是空無一物或空曠空虛,是指"一切事物都有各自的因緣,不須強求"。
GUBAN整理各中外名家論點對心經之白話淺釋:
觀自在!觀自在!這位神聖的菩薩正處於證悟渡到彼岸大智慧,深而微妙的修行狀態中。祂由高處往下確切直觀到五蘊,也就是人世界的有形生理與無形心理現象都有各自的因緣,不可強求,因此能度過所有的苦痛困難。舍利子,世界萬物都由於因緣和合而成, 雖有而無,有非真有,無非真無,非有非無,這正是"空"。色與空兩者相互依存。當一切有形的物質最後一定會有它的因緣趨向空無,同樣的相信當一切終究是因緣,那麼無所求的人就像擁有了一切。既然有形物質層面已如此。肉體感受 、感知能力 、行為造作、辨識能力等也是一樣會有它的因緣趨向空無。舍利子,世界上的一切存在現象都具備了空的特性。它們沒有被生起也沒有被止滅、它們沒有被污染也沒有一定潔淨、它們沒有缺陷也沒有完滿。當一切因緣必然趨向空無,那麼一切有形的物質也沒什麼重要了。照這樣推論下去,肉體感受 、感知能力 、行為造作、辨識能力以及視覺、聽覺 、嗅覺、味覺、觸覺、心念最終也影響不了什麼。也能避開來自視覺、聽覺 、嗅覺、味覺、觸覺的享受以及心念的對象的種種心性污塵。要領悟從眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意,色、聲、香、味、觸、法到眼識、耳識、鼻識、舌識、身識,到意識一共十八界依然是空無的狀態。十二因緣講的是:因為無明,即貪、嗔、癡等煩惱帶來的惑,蒙蔽了真如本性開始,就會造作諸業,就會造作人的分別心,就會造作對物質與心理的欲求,就會造作眼耳鼻舌身意之六根的感覺,就會造作外境接觸,就會造作苦、樂的感受,就會造作對境生愛欲,就會執著與愛導致苦的產生,就體會生命的情緒與感覺的心靈不得不的存在,也體會生命實體的不得不的存在,最終歷經成熟後又開始敗壞,這是講人間的轉生因果 , 始終陷在凡夫的境地,不得解脫 , 這時你要理解,唯一的方法就是破除無明煩惱,則能轉愚成智,進而脫離輪迴,永入無煩惱無罣礙境界。四聖諦:苦諦 :眾生有三種身苦:老、病、死;有三種心苦:貪、嗔、痴。集諦,造成苦果之原因也。滅諦,消除一切苦惱也。道諦,即滅苦之道,終極目標就是理解這四種道理而因此解脫。 要破除自以為已悟通般若智慧或自以為已悟得佛法的執著。正因為對佛法悟得的無所執著,對所有追求菩提智慧的有情眾生,以修習般若波羅蜜多為前導,擺脫了種種思維的覆蓋。因為沒有 種種思維的覆蓋 ,所以心中清靜無礙,再也不怖畏死生之事。遠離一切不合理的思想行為或妄想,自覺達至明白的寂滅境界。過去現在未來三世,十方一切佛 ,無不是一以修習般若波羅蜜多為前導,獲得解脫煩惱障及所知障與無上智慧和圓滿覺悟。所以說般若波羅蜜多是廣大普遍、貫通三世十方的密語, 咒是一種「聲音感應的法門」。是掃除無明、愚痴的密語,是一切之最、無法超越的密語,是相等於無與倫比境界的密語。所以說般若波羅蜜多是密語真言。現在告訴你密語真言的原始梵音。去吧去吧,越過去吧 ,一起都超越到彼岸去吧,願圓滿的智慧覺悟安住。
心經白話淺釋:
[心經的背景:二千五百多年前,佛陀在王舍城靈鷲山上對大比丘一千二百五十多位及眾菩薩等開示正法。在這一次開示中,佛陀並非以其金口直接講解,而是入於三昧禪定中,以神通驅使觀自在菩薩與佛陀弟子之一的舍利子作出一番對答]
般若波羅蜜多心經。心經是指靠著這偉大的智慧,到達解脫彼岸,這一類經典的精華、心髓。
THE HEART SUTRA(華文為唐朝玄奘譯;English translated by E. Conze)
觀自在菩薩,Avalokita, the Holy Lord and Bodhisattva
(觀自在菩薩俗稱觀世音菩薩,祂的起源目前已不可考,在大乘佛教的信仰中是西方極樂世界教主阿彌陀佛座下的上首菩薩,同大勢至菩薩一起,為阿彌陀佛的左、右脅侍菩薩並稱「西方三聖」。另外祂也是四大菩薩之一,四大菩薩為:觀音菩薩、文殊菩薩、普賢菩薩、地藏菩薩。)
行深般若波羅蜜多時,was moving in the deep course of the Wisdom which has gone beyond
(正處於證悟渡到彼岸大智慧深而微妙的修行狀態中。)
照見五蘊皆空,He looked down from on high, He beheld but five heaps, and He saw that in their own-being they were empty
(祂由高處往下直觀到,人世界的有形生理與無形心理現象都有各自的因緣,不可強求。五蘊=色、受、想、行、識,構成了人的全部要素。色:是有形物質層面。受:是生理感受。想:是對所知事物的概念。行:是因意思而行動的行為。識:是判斷與分別。)
度一切若厄..(因此能度過所有的苦痛困難。)
舍利子,Here, O Sariputra
(觀自在菩薩稱呼舍利子=舍利弗,是釋迦牟尼佛的十大弟子之一,號稱智慧第一[舍利弗梵文Sariputra,不是sarira=那是火化後遺留的固體物,一般人容易混淆])
色不異空,form is emptiness and the very emptiness is form ;
空不異色;emptiness does not differ from form
(世界萬物都由於因緣和合而成, 雖有而無,有非真有,無非真無,非有非無,這是"空"。色與空兩者相互依存。)
色即是空,form does not differ from emptiness,
空即是色 whatever is emptiness, that is form
(當一切有形的物質最後一定會有它的因緣趨向空無,同樣的相信當一切終究是因緣,那麼無所求的人就像擁有了一切。)
受想行識亦復如是.the same is true of feelings, perceptions, impulses, and consciousness.
(既然有形物質層面已如此。肉體感受 、感知能力 、行為造作、辨識能力等也是一樣會有它的因緣趨向空無。)
舍利子,Here, O Sariputra,
是諸法空相,all dharmas are marked with emptiness
(世界上的一切存在現象都具備了空的特性)
不生不滅,they are not produced or stopped
(它們沒有被生起也沒有被止滅)
不垢不淨,not defiled or immaculate,
(它們沒有被污染也沒有一定潔淨)
不增不減.not deficient or complete
(它們沒有缺陷也沒有完滿)
是故空中無色,Therefore, O Sariputra,in emptiness there is no form
(一切因緣趨向空無當然一切有形的物質也沒什麼重要了)
無受想行識; nor feeling, nor perception, nor impulse, nor consciousness
( 肉體感受 、感知能力 、行為造作、辨識能力也沒什麼重要)
無眼耳鼻舌身意;No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mind
(視覺、聽覺 、嗅覺、味覺、觸覺、心念也沒什麼重要)
無色聲香味觸法;No forms, sounds, smells, tastes, touchables or objects of mind
(也就是說視覺、聽覺 、嗅覺、味覺、觸覺的享受以及心念的對象也沒什麼重要)
無眼界, No sight-organ element,
乃至無意識界;and so forth, until we come to :No mind-consciousness element ;
(眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意之六根,色、聲、香、味、觸、法之六塵,眼識、耳識、鼻識、舌識、身識、意識之六識,名為十八界。依然是空無的狀態)
無無明,There is no ignorance,
亦無無明盡,no extinction of ignorance,
乃至無老死,亦無老死盡;and so forth, until we come to : There is no decay and death, no extinction of decay and death.
(十二因緣講的是:因為無明,即貪、嗔、癡等煩惱帶來的惑,蒙蔽了真如本性開始,造作諸業,造作人的分別心,造作對物質與心理的欲求,造作眼耳鼻舌身意之六根的感覺,造作外境接觸,造作苦、樂的感受,造作對境生愛欲,執著與愛導致苦的產生,生命的情緒與感覺的心靈不得不的存在,生命實體的不得不的存在,然後歷經成熟後又開始敗壞,這是講人間的轉生因果 , 始終是凡夫,不得解脫 , 倘能破除無明煩惱,則能轉愚成智,永入無煩惱無罣礙境界)
無苦集滅道;There is no suffering, no origination, no stopping, no path.
( 四聖諦:。 苦諦 :眾生有三種身苦:老、病、死;有三種心苦:貪、嗔、痴。集諦,造成苦果之原因也。滅諦,消除一切苦惱也。道諦,即滅苦之道,連這四種道理都可以因此解脫)
無智亦無得.There is no cognition, no attainment and no non-attainment
( 要破除自以為已悟通般若智慧或自以為已悟得佛法的執著)
以無所得故,菩提薩埵,依般若波羅蜜多故,心無罣礙Therefore, O Sariputra,it is because of his non-attainmentness that a Bodhisattva, through having relied on the Perfection of Wisdom, dwells without thought-coverings.
( 正因為對佛法悟得的無所執著,對所有追求菩提智慧的有情眾生,以修習般若波羅蜜多為前導,擺脫了種種思維的覆蓋)
無罣礙故,無有恐怖,In the absence of thought-coverings he has not been made to tremble
(因為沒有 種種思維的覆蓋 ,所以心中清靜無礙,再也不怖畏死生之事)
遠離顛倒夢想,究竟涅槃.he has overcome what can upset, and in the end he attains to Nirvana
(遠離一切不合理的思想行為或妄想,自覺達至明白的寂滅境界)
三世諸佛,依般若波羅蜜多故,得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提.All those who appear as Buddhas in the three periods of time fully awake to the utmost, right and perfect Enlightenment because they have relied on the Perfection of Wisdom
(過去現在未來三世,十方一切佛 ,無不是一以修習般若波羅蜜多為前導,獲得解脫煩惱障及所知障與無上智慧和圓滿覺悟)
故知般若波羅蜜多是大神咒,Therefore one should know the prajnaparamita as the great spell
(所以說般若波羅蜜多是廣大普遍、貫通三世十方的密語, 咒是一種「聲音感應的法門」)
是大明咒,是無上咒,是無等等咒,the spell of great knowledge, the utmost spell, the unequalled spell
(是掃除無明、愚痴的密語,是一切之最、無法超越的密語,是相等於無與倫比境界的密語)
能除一切苦,真實不虛,allayer of all suffering, in truth-- for what could go wrong ?
故說般若波羅蜜多咒.By the prajnaparamita has this spell been delivered
(所以說般若波羅蜜多是密語真言)
即說咒曰:It runs like this
(現在告訴你密語真言的原始梵音)
揭諦揭諦,波羅揭諦,波羅僧揭諦,菩提薩婆訶.gate gate paragate parasamgate bodhi svaha.( Gone, gone, gone beyond, gone altogether beyond, O what an awakening, all-hail ! -- )
This completes the Heart of perfect Wisdom.
(去吧去吧,越過去吧 ,一起都超越到彼岸去吧,願圓滿的智慧覺悟安住)

孔茲(Edward Conze)英譯版金剛經
The Diamond Cutter
(1)
Thus have I heard at one time. The
Lord dwelt at Sravasti, in the Jeta Grove, in the garden of Anathapindika ,
together with a large gathering of monks, consisting of 1,250 monks, and with
many Bodhisattvas, great beings. Early in the morning the Lord dressed, put on
his cloak, took his bowl, and entered the great city of Sravasti to collect alms. When he had eaten
and returned from his round, the Lord put away his bowl and cloak, washed his
feet, and sat down on the seat arranged for him, crossing his legs, holding his
body upright, and mindfully fixing his attention in front of him. Then many
monks approached to where the Lord was, saluted his feet with their heads,
thrice walked round him to the right, and sat down on one side.
(2)
At that time the Venerable Subhuti
came to that assembly, and sat down. Then he rose from his seat, put his upper
robe over one shoulder, placed his right knee on the ground, bent forth his
folded hands towards the Lord, and said to the Lord: 'It is wonderful O Lord,
it is exceedingly wonderful, O Well-Gone, how much the Bodhisattvas, the great
beings, have been helped with the greatest help by the Tathagata, the Arhat,
the Fully Enlightened One. It is wonderful, O Lord, how much the Bodhisattvas,
the great beings, have been favoured with the highest favour by the Tathagata,
the Arhat, the Fully Enlightened One. How then, O Lord, should a son or
daughter of good family, who have set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle, stand,
how progress, how control their thoughts?'
After these words the Lord said to
the Venerable Subhuti: 'Well said, well said, Subhuti! So it is, Subhuti, so it
is, as you say! The Tathagata, Subhuti, has helped the Bodhisattvas, the great
beings with the greatest help, and he has favoured them with the highest
favour. Therefore, 'Subhuti, listen well, and attentively! I will teach you how
those who have set out in the Bodhisattva vehicle should stand, how progress,
how control their thoughts.' 'So be it, O Lord', replied the Venerable Subhuti
and listened.
(3)
The Lord said: Here, Subhuti,
someone who has set out in the vehicle of a Bodhisattva should produce a
thought in this manner: 'As many beings as there are in the universe of beings,
comprehended under the term "beings" egg-born, born from a womb,
moisture-born, or miraculously born; with or without form; with perception,
without perception, and with neither perception nor non-perception, as far as
any conceivable form of beings is conceived: all these I must lead to Nirvana,
into that Realm of Nirvana which leaves nothing behind. And yet, although
innumerable beings have thus been led to Nirvana, no being at all has been led
to Nirvana.'
And why?If in a Bodhisattva the
notion of a 'being' should take place, he could not be called a 'Bodhi-being'.
'And why? He is not to be called a Bodhi-being, in whom the notion of a self or
of a being should take place, or the notion of a living soul or of a person.'
(4)
Moreover, Subhuti, a Bodhisattva
who gives a gift should not be supported by a thing, nor should he be supported
anywhere. When he gives gifts he should not be supported by sight-objects, nor
by sounds, smells, tastes, touchables, or mind-objects. For, Subhuti, the
Bodhisattva, the great being should give gifts in such a way that he is not
supported by the notion of a sign.
And why? Because the heap of merit
of that Bodhi-being, who unsupported gives a gift, is not easy to measure. What
do you think, Subhuti, is the extent of space in the East easy to measure?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. The Lord asked: In like manner, is it easy to measure the extent of space
in the South, West or North, downwards, upwards, in the intermediate
directions, in all the ten directions all round? Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord.
The Lord said: Even so the heap of
merit of that Bodhibeing who unsupported gives a gift is not easy to measure.
That is why, Subhuti, those who have set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle, should
give gifts without being supported by the notion of a sign.
(5)
The Lord continued: 'What do you
think, Subhuti, can the Tathagata be seen by the possession of his marks?'
Subhuti replied: 'No indeed, O
Lord. And why? What has been taught by the Tathagata as the possession of
marks, that is truly a no-possession of no-marks.'
The Lord said: 'Wherever there is
possession of marks, there is fraud, wherever there is no-possession of
no-marks there is no fraud. Hence the Tathagata is to be seen from no marks as
marks.'
(6)
Subhuti asked: Will there be any
beings in the future period, in the last time, in the last epoch, in the last
500 years, at the time of the collapse of the good doctrine who, when these
words of the Sutra are being taught, will understand their truth?
The Lord replied: Do not speak
thus, Subhuti! Yes, even then there will be such beings. For even at that time,
Subhuti, there will be Bodhisattvas who are gifted with good conduct, gifted,
with virtuous qualities, gifted with wisdom, and who, when these words of the
Sutra are being taught, will understand their truth. And these Bodhisattvas,
Subhuti, will not be such as have honoured only one single Buddha, nor such as
have planted their roots of merit under one single Buddha only. On the
contrary, Subhuti, those Bodhisattvas who, when these words of the Sutra are
being taught, will find even one single thought of serene faith, they will be
such as have honoured many hundreds of thousands of Buddhas, such as have
planted their roots of merit under many hundreds of thousands of Buddhas. Known
they are, Subhuti, to the Tathagata through his Buddha cognition, seen they
are, Subhuti, by the Tathagata with his Buddha-eye, fully known they are,
Subhuti, to the Tathagata. And they all, Subhuti, will beget and acquire an
immeasurable and incalculable heap of merit.
And why? Because, Subhuti, in
these Bodhisattvas (1) no perception of a self takes place, (2) no perception
of a being, (3) no perception of a soul, (4) no perception of a person. Nor do
these Bodhisattvas have (5) a perception of a dharma, or (6) a perception of a
no-dharma. (7) No perception or (8) non-perception takes place in them.
And why? If, Subhuti, these
Bodhisattvas should have a perception of either a dharma, or a no-dharma, they
would thereby seize on a self, a being, a soul, or a person.
And why? Because a Bodhisattva
should not seize on either a dharma or a no-dharma. Therefore this saying has
been taught by the Tathagata with a hidden meaning: 'Those who know the
discourse on dharma as like unto a raft, should forsake dharmas, still more so
no-dharmas.'
(7)
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, is there any dharma which the Tathagata has fully known as 'the
utmost, right and perfect enlightenment, or is there any dharma which the
Tathagata has demonstrated?
Subhuti replied: No, not as I understand
what the Lord has said.And why? This dharma which the Tathagata has fully known
or demonstrated it cannot be grasped, it cannot be talked about, it is neither
a dharma nor a no-dharma. And why? Because an Absolute exalts the Holy Persons.
(8)
The Lord then asked: What do you
think, Subhuti, if a son or daughter of good family had filled this world
system of 1,000 million worlds with the seven precious things, and then gave it
as a gift to the Tathagatas, Arhats, Fully Enlightened Ones, would they on the
strength of that beget a great heap of merit?
Subbuti replied: Great, O Lord,
great, O Well-Gone, would that heap of merit be! And why? Because the Tathagata
spoke of the 'heap of merit' as a non-heap. That is how the Tathagata speaks of
'heap of merit'. The Lord said:
But if someone else were to take
from this discourse on dharma but one stanza of four lines, and would
demonstrate and illuminate it in full detail to others, then he would on the
strength of that beget a still greater heap of merit, immeasurable and
incalculable.
And why? Because from it has
issued the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment of the Tathagatas, Arhats,
Fully Enlightened Ones, and from it have issued the Buddhas, the Lords. And
why? For the Tathagata has taught that the dharmas special to the Buddhas are
just not a Buddha's special dharmas. That is why they are called 'the dharmas
special to the Buddhas'.
(9)
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does it occur to the Streamwinner, 'by me has the fruit of a
Streamwinner been attained'?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. And why? Because, O Lord, he has not won any dharma. Therefore is he
called a Stream-winner. No sight-object has been won, no sounds, smells,
tastes, touchables, or objects of mind. That is why he is called a
'Streamwinner'. If, O Lord, it would occur to a Streamwinner, 'by me has a
Streamwinner's fruit been attained', then that would be in him a seizing on a
self, seizing on a being, seizing on a soul, seizing on a person.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does it then occur to the Once-Returner, 'by me has the fruit of a
Once-Returner been attained'?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. And why? Because there is not any dharma that has won Once-Returnership.
That is why he is called a 'Once-Returner'.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does it then occur to the Never-Returner 'by me has the fruit of a
Never-Returner been attained'?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. And why? Because there is not any dharma that has won Never Returnership.
Therefore is he called a 'Never-Returner'.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does it then occur to the Arhat, 'by me has Arhatship been attained'?
Subhuti: No indeed, O Lord.
And why? Because no dharma is
called 'Arhat'. That is why he is called an Arhat. If, O Lord, it would occur
to an Arhat. 'by me has Arhatship been attained', then that would be in him a
seizing on a self, seizing on a being, seizing on a soul, seizing on a person.
And why? I am, O Lord, the one
whom the Tathagata, the Arhat, the Fully Enlightened One has pointed out as the
foremost of those who dwell in Peace. I am, O Lord, an Arhat free from greed.
And yet, O Lord, it does not occur to me, 'an Arhat am I and free from greed'.
If, O Lord, it could occur to me that I have attained Arhatship, then the
Tathagata would not have declared of me that 'Subhuti, this son of good family,
who is the foremost of those who dwell in Peace, does not dwell anywhere; that
is why he is called "a dweller in Peace, a dweller in Peace"'.
(10)
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, is there any dharma which the Tathagata has learned from Dipankara,
the Tathagata, the Arhat, the Fully Enlightened One?
Subhuti replied: Not so, O Lord,
there is not.
The Lord said: If any Bodhisattva
would say, 'I will create harmonious Buddhafields', he would speak falsely. And
why? 'The harmonies of Buddhafields, the harmonies of Buddhafields', Subhuti,
as no-harmonies have they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore he spoke of
'harmonious Buddhafields'.
Therefore then, Subhuti, the
Bodhisattva, the great being, should produce an unsupported thought, i.e. a
thought which is nowhere supported, a thought unsupported by sights, sounds,
smells, tastes, touchables or mind-objects.
Suppose, Subhuti, there were a man
endowed with a body, a huge body, so that he had a personal existence like
Sumeru, king of mountains. Would that, Subhuti, be a huge personal existence?
Subhuti replied: Yes, huge, O Lord, huge, O Well-Gone, would his personal
existence be. And why so? 'Personal existence, personal existence', as
no-existence has that been taught by the Tathagata; for not, O Lord, is that
existence or non-existence. Therefore is it called 'personal existence'.
(11)
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, if there were as many Ganges rivers as there are grains of sand in the
large river Ganges, would the grains of sand in them be many?
Subhuti replied: Those Ganges
rivers would indeed be many, much more so the grains of sand in them.
The Lord said: This is what I
announce to you, Subhuti, this is what I make known to you, if some woman or
man had filled with the seven precious things as many world systems as there
are grains of sand in those Ganges rivers, and would give them as a gift to the
Tathagatas, Arhats, fully Enlightened Ones what do you think, Subhuti, would
that woman or man on the strength of that beget a great heap of merit?
Subhuti replied: Great, O Lord,
great O Well-Gone, would that heap of merit be, immeasurable and incalculable.
The Lord said: But if a son or
daughter of good family had taken from this discourse on dharma but one stanza
of four lines, and were to demonstrate and illuminate it to others, then they
would on the strength of that beget a still greater heap of merit, immeasurable
and incalculable.
(12)
Moreover, Subhuti, that spot of
earth where one has taken from this discourse on dharma but one stanza of four
lines, taught or illumined it, that spot of earth will be a veritable shrine
for the whole world with its gods, men and Asuras. What then should we say of
those who will bear in mind this discourse on dharma in its entirety, who will
recite, study, and illuminate it in full detail for others! Most wonderfully
blest, Subhuti, they will be! And on that spot of earth, Subhuti, either the Teacher
dwells, or a sage representing him.
(13)
Subhuti asked: What then, O Lord,
is this discourse on dharma, and how should I bear it in mind? The Lord
replied:
This discourse on dharma, Subhuti,
is called 'Wisdom which has gone beyond', and as such should you bear it in
mind! And why? Just that which the Tathagata has taught as the wisdom which has
gone beyond, just that He has taught as not gone beyond. Therefore is it called
'Wisdom which has gone beyond'. What do you think, Subhuti, is there any dharma
which the Tathagata has taught?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord, there is not.
The Lord said: When, Subhuti, you
consider the number of particles of dust in this world system of 1,000 million
worlds-would they be many?
Subhuti replied: Yes, O Lord.
Because what was taught as
particles of dust by the Tathagata, as no-particles that was taught by the
Tathagata. Therefore are they called 'particles of dust'. And this world-system
the Tathagata has taught as no-system. Therefore is it called a 'world system'.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, can the Tathagata be seen by means of the thirty-two marks of the
superman? Subhuti replied: No indeed, O Lord.
And why? Because those thirty-two
marks of the superman which were taught by the Tathagata, they are really
no-marks. Therefore are they called 'the thirty-two marks of the superman'.
The Lord said: And again, Subhuti,
suppose a woman or a man were to renounce all their belongings as many times as
there are grains of sand in the river Ganges; and suppose that someone else,
after taking from this discourse on Dharma but one stanza of four lines, would
demonstrate it to others. Then this latter on the strength of that would beget
a greater heap of merit, immeasurable and incalculable.
(14)
Thereupon the impact of Dharma
moved the Venerable Subhuti to tears. Having wiped away his tears, he thus
spoke to the Lord: It is wonderful, O Lord, it is exceedingly wonderful, O
Well-Gone, how well the Tathagata has taught this discourse on Dharma. Through
it cognition has been produced in me. Not have I ever before heard such a
discourse on Dharma. Most wonderfully blest will be those who, when this Sutra
is being taught, will produce a true perception. And that which is true
perception, that is indeed no perception.
Therefore the Tathagata teaches,
'true perception, true perceptions'. It is not difficult for me to accept and
believe this discourse on Dharma when it is being taught. But those beings who
will be in a future period, in the last time, in the last epoch, in the last
500 years, at the time of the collapse of the good doctrine, and who, O Lord,
will take up this discourse on Dharma, bear it in mind, recite it, study it,
and illuminate it in full detail for others, these will be most wonderfully
blest. In them, however, no perception of a self will take place, or of a
being, a soul, or a person.
And why? That, O Lord, which is
perception of self, that is indeed no perception. That which is perception of a
being, a soul or a person, that is indeed no perception. And why? Because the
Buddhas, the Lords have left all perceptions behind.
The Lord said: So it is, Subhuti.
Most wonderfully blest will be those beings who, on hearing this Sutra, will
not tremble, nor be frightened, or terrified.
And why? The Tathagata has taught
this as the highest (parama-) perfection (paramita). And what the Tathagata
teaches as the highest perfection, that also the innumerable (aparimana)
Blessed Buddhas do teach. Therefore is it called the 'highest perfection'.
Moreover, Subhuti, the Tathagata's
perfection of patience is really no perfection.
And why? Because, Subhuti, when
the king of Kalinga cut my flesh from every limb, at that time I had no
perception of a self, of a being, of a soul, or a person.
And why? If, Subhuti, at that time
I had had a perception of self, I would also have had a perception of ill-will
at that time. And so, if I had had a perception of a being, of a soul, or of a
person. With my superknowledge I recall that in the past I have for five
hundred births led the life of a sage devoted to patience. Then also have I had
no perception of a self, a being, a soul, or a person.
Therefore then, Subhuti, the
Bodhi-being, the great being, after he has got rid of all perceptions, should
raise his thought to the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment. He should
produce a thought which is unsupported by forms, sounds, smells, tastes,
touchables, or mind-objects, unsupported by dharma, unsupported by no-dharma,
unsupported by anything. And why?
All supports have actually no
support. It is for this reason that the Tathagata teaches: By an unsupported
Bodhisattva should a gift be given, not by one who is supported by forms,
sounds, smells, tastes, touchables, or mind-objects.
And further, Subhuti, it is for
the weal of all beings that a Bodhisattva should give gifts in this manner. And
why? This perception of a being, Subhuti, that is just a non-perception. Those
all-beings of whom the Tathagata has spoken, they are indeed no-beings.
And why? Because the Tathagata
speaks in accordance with reality, speaks the truth, speaks of what is, not
otherwise. A Tathagata does not speak falsely.
But nevertheless, Subhuti, with
regard to that dharma which the Tathagata has fully known and demonstrated, on
account of that there is neither truth nor fraud.
In darkness a man could not see
anything. Just so should be viewed a Bodhisattva who has fallen among things,
and who, fallen among things, renounces a gift.
A man with eyes would, when the
night becomes light and the sun has arisen, see manifold forms. Just so should
be viewed a Bodhisattva who has not fallen among things, and who, without
having fallen among things, renounces a gift.
Furthermore, Subhuti, those sons
and daughters of good family who will take up this discourse on Dharma, will
bear it in mind, recite, study, and illuminate it in full detail for others,
they have been known, Subhuti, by the Tathagata with his Buddha-cognition, they
have been seen, Subhuti, by the Tathagata with his Buddha-eye, they have been
fully known by the Tathagata. All these beings, Subhuti, will beget and acquire
an immeasurable and incalculable heap of merit.
(15)
And if, Subhuti, a woman or man
should renounce in the morning all their belongings as many times as there are
grains of sand in the river Ganges, and if they should do likewise at noon and
in the evening, and if in this way they should renounce all their belongings
for many hundreds of thousands of millions of milliards of aeons; and someone
else, on hearing this discourse on Dharma, would not reject it; then the latter
would on the strength of that beget a greater heap of merit, immeasurable and
incalculable. What then should we say of him who, after writing it, would learn
it, bear it in mind, recite, study and illuminate it in full detail for others?
Moreover, Subhuti, (1) unthinkable
and (2) incomparable is this discourse on Dharma. (3) The Tathagata has taught
it for the weal of beings who have set out in the best, in the most excellent
vehicle. Those who will take up this discourse on Dharma, bear it in mind,
recite, study and illuminate it in full detail for others, the Tathagata has
known them with his Buddha-cognition, the Tathagata has seen them with his
Buddha-eye, the Tathagata has fully known them. All these beings, Subhuti, will
be blest with an immeasurable heap of merit, they will be blest with a heap of
merit unthinkable, incomparable, measureless and illimitable. All these beings,
Subhuti, will carry along an equal share of enlightenment.
And why? (4) Because it is not
possible, Subhuti, that this discourse on Dharma could be heard by beings of
inferior resolve, nor by such as have a self in view, a being, a soul, or a
person. Nor can beings who have not taken the pledge of Bodhi-beings either
hear this discourse on Dharma, or take it up, bear it in mind, recite or study
it. That cannot be.
(1) Moreover, Subhuti, the spot of
earth where this Sutra will be revealed, that spot of earth will be worthy of
worship by the whole world with its Gods, men and Asuras, worthy of being saluted
respectfully, worthy of being honoured by circumambulation, like a shrine will
be that spot of earth.
(16)
And yet Subhuti, those sons and
daughters of good family, who will take up these very Sutras, and will bear
them in mind, recite and study them, they will be humbled, well humbled they
will be!
And why? The impure deeds which
these beings have done in their former lives, and which are liable to lead them
into the states of woe, in this very life they will, by means of that
humiliation, (2) annul those impure deeds of their former lives, and (3) they
will reach the enlightenment of a Buddha.
With my superknowledge, Subhuti, I
recall that in the past period, long before Dipankara, the Tathagata, Arhat,
fully Enlightened One, during incalculable, quite incalculable aeons, I gave
satisfaction by loyal service to 84,000 million milliards of Buddhas, without
ever becoming again estranged from them. But the heap of merit, Subhuti, from
the satisfaction I gave to those Buddhas and Lords without again becoming
estranged from them compared with the heap of merit of those who in the last
time, the last epoch, the last five hundred years, at the time of the collapse
of the good doctrine, will take up these very Sutras, bear them in mind, recite
and study them, and will illuminate them in full detail for others, it does not
approach one hundredth part, not one thousandth part, nor a one hundred
thousandth part, not a ten millionth part, nor a one hundred millionth part,
nor a 100,000 millionth part. It does not bear number, nor fraction, nor
counting, nor similarity, nor comparison, nor resemblance.
(4) If moreover, Subhuti, I were
to teach, the heap of merit of those sons and daughters of good family, and how
great a heap of merit they will at that time beget and acquire, beings would
become frantic and confused. Since, however, Subhuti, the Tathagata has taught
this discourse on Dharma as unthinkable, so just an unthinkable karma result
should be expected from it.
(17)
Subhuti asked: How, O Lord, should
one set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle stand, how progress, how control his
thoughts?
The Lord replied: Here, Subhuti,
someone who has set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle should produce a thought in
this manner: 'all beings I must lead to Nirvana, into that Realm of Nirvana
which leaves nothing behind; and yet, after beings have thus been led to
Nirvana, no being at all has been led to Nirvana'.
And why? If in a Bodhisattva the
notion of a 'being' should take place, he could not be called a 'Bodhi-being'.
And likewise if the notion of a soul, or a person should take place in him. And
why? He who has set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle he is not one of the
dharmas.
What do you think Subhuti, is
there any dharma by which the Tathagata, when he was with Dipankara the Tathagata,
has fully known the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment?
Subhuti replied: There is not any
dharma by which the Tathagata, when he was with the Tathagata Dipankara, has
fully known the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment.
The Lord said: It is for this
reason that the Tathagata Dipankara then predicted of me: 'You, young Brahmin,
will be in a future period a Tathagata, Arhat, fully Enlightened, by the name
of Shakyamuni!'
And why? 'Tathagata', Subhuti, is
synonymous with true Suchness (tathata).
And whosoever, Subhuti, were to
say, 'The Tathagata has fully known the utmost, right and perfect
enlightenment', he would speak falsely. And why? There is not any dharma by
which the Tathagata has fully known the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment.
And that dharma which the Tathagata has fully known and demonstrated, on
account of that there is neither truth nor fraud.
Therefore the Tathagata teaches,
all dharmas are the Buddha's own and special dharmas'. And why? 'All-dharmas',
Subhuti, have as no-dharmas been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore all dharmas
are called the Buddha's own and special dharmas.
Just as a man, Subhuti, might be
endowed with a body, a huge body. Subhuti said: That man of whom the Tathagata
spoke as 'endowed with a body, a huge body', as a no-body he has been taught by
the Tathagata. Therefore is he called, 'endowed with a body, a huge body'.
The Lord said: So it is, Subhuti.
The Bodhisattva who would say, I will lead beings to Nirvana', he should not be
called a 'Bodhi-being'.
And why? Is there, Subhuti, any
dharma named 'Bodhi-being'? Subhuti replied: No indeed, O Lord. The Lord said:
Because of that the Tathagata teaches, 'selfless are all dharmas, they have not
the character of living beings, they are without a living soul, without
personality'.
If any Bodhisattva should say, 'I
will create harmonious Buddhafields', he likewise should not be called a
Bodhi-being.
And why? 'The harmonies of
Buddhafields, the harmonies of Buddhafields', Subhuti, as no-harmonies have
they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore he spoke of 'harmonious
Buddhafields'. The Bodhisattva, however, Subhuti, who is intent on 'without
self are the dharmas, without self are the dharmas', him the Tathagata, the
Arhat, the fully Enlightened One has declared to be a Bodhi-being, a great
being.
(18)
What do you think, Subhuti, does
the fleshly eye of the Tathagata exist? Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord, the
fleshly eye of the Tathagata does exist. The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does the Tathagata's heavenly eye exist, his wisdom eye, his
Dharma-eye, his Buddha-eye? Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord, the heavenly eye
of the Tathagata does exist, and so does his wisdom eye, his Dharma-eye and his
Buddha-eye.
The Lord said: What do you think,
Subhuti, has the Tathagata used the phrase, 'as many grains of sand as there
are in the great river Ganges '?
Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord,
so it is, O Well-Gone! The Tathagata has done so.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, if there were as many Ganges rivers as there are grains of sand in the
great river Ganges , and if there were as many
world systems as there are grains of sand in them, would those world systems be
many? Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord, so it is, O Well-Gone, these world
systems would be many.
The Lord said: As many beings as
there are in these world systems, of them I know, in my wisdom, the manifold
trends of thought. And why? 'Trends of thought, trends of thought', Subhuti, as
no trends have they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore are they called
'trends of thought'. And why? Past thought is not got at; future thought is not
got at; present thought is not got at.
(19)
What do you think, Subhuti, if a
son or daughter of good family had filled this world system of 1,000 million
worlds with the seven precious things, and then gave it as a gift to the
Tathagatas, the Arhats, the fully Enlightened Ones, would they on the strength
of that beget a great heap of merit?
Subhuti replied: they would, O
Lord, they would, O Well-Gone!
The Lord said: So it is, Subhuti,
so it is. On the strength of that this son or daughter of good family would
beget a great heap of merit, immeasurable and incalculable. But if, on the
other hand, there were such a thing as a heap of merit, the Tathagata would not
have spoken of a 'heap of merit'.
(20)
What do you think, Subhuti, is the
Tathagata to be seen by means of the accomplishment of his form-body?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord, the Tathagata is not to be seen by means of the accomplishment of his
form-body. And why? 'Accomplishment of his form-body, accomplishment of his
form-body', this, O Lord, has been taught by the Tathagata as
no-accomplishment. Therefore is it called 'accomplishment of his form-body'.
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, is the Tathagata to be seen through his possession of marks?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. And why? This possession of marks, O Lord, which has been taught by the
Tathagata, as a no-possession of no-marks this has been taught by the Tathagata.
Therefore is it called 'possession of marks'.
(21)
The Lord asked: What do you think,
Subhuti, does it occur to the Tathagata, 'by me has Dharma been demonstrated'?
Whosoever, Subhuti, would say, 'the Tathagata has demonstrated Dharma', he
would speak falsely, he would misrepresent me by seizing on what is not there.
And why? 'Demonstration of dharma, demonstration of dharma', Subhuti, there is
not any dharma which could be got at as a demonstration of dharma.
Subhuti asked: Are there, O Lord,
any beings in the future, in the last time, in the last epoch, in the last 500
years, at the time of the collapse of the good doctrine who, on hearing such
dharmas, will truly believe?
The Lord replied: They, Subhuti,
are neither beings nor no-beings. And why? 'Beings, beings', Subhuti, the
Tathagata has taught that they are all no-beings. Therefore has he spoken of
'all beings'.
(22)
What do you think, Subhuti, is
there any dharma by which the Tathagata has fully known the utmost, right and
perfect enlightenment?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord, there is not any dharma by which the Tathagata has fully known the
utmost, right and perfect enlightenment.
The Lord said: So it is, Subhuti,
so it is. Not even the least (anu) dharma is there found or got at. Therefore
is it called 'utmost (anuttara), right and perfect enlightenment'.
(23)
Furthermore, Subhuti,
self-identical (sama) is that dharma, and nothing is therein at variance
(vishama). Therefore is it called 'utmost, right (samyak) and perfect (sam-)
enlightenment'. Self-identical through the absence of a self, a being, a soul,
or a person, the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment is fully known as the
totality of all the wholesome dharmas. 'Wholesome dharmas, wholesome dharmas',
Subhuti yet as no-dharmas have they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore are
they called 'wholesome dharmas'.
(24)
And again, Subhuti, if a woman or
man had piled up the seven precious things until their bulk equaled that of all
the Sumerus, kings of mountains, in the world system of 1,000 million worlds,
and would give them as a gift; and if, on the other hand, a son or daughter of
good family would take up from this Prajnaparamita, this discourse on Dharma,
but one stanza of four lines, and demonstrate it to others, compared with his heap
of merit the former heap of merit does not approach one hundredth part, etc.,
until we come to, it will not bear any comparison.
(25)
What do you think, Subhuti, does
it occur to a Tathagata, 'by me have beings been set free'? Not thus should you
see it, Subhuti!
And why? There is not any being
whom the Tathagata has set free. Again, if there had been any being whom the
Tathagata had set free, then surely there would have been on the part of the
Tathagata a seizing of a self, of a being, of a soul, of a person. 'Seizing of
a self', as a no-seizing, Subhuti, has that been taught by the Tathagata. And
yet the foolish common people have seized upon it. 'Foolish common people',
Subhuti, as really no people have they been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore
are they called 'foolish common people'.
(26)
What do you think, Subhuti, is the
Tathagata to be seen by means of his possession of marks?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord. The Lord said: If, Subhuti, the Tathagata could be recognized by his
possession of marks, then also the universal monarch would be a Tathagata.
Therefore the Tathagata is not to be seen by means of his possession of marks.
Subhuti then said: As I, O Lord,
understand the Lord's teaching, the Tathagata is not to be seen through his
possession of marks.
Further the Lord taught on that
occasion the following stanzas:
Those who by my form did see me,
And those who followed me by voice
Wrong the efforts they engaged in,
Me those people will not see.
And those who followed me by voice
Wrong the efforts they engaged in,
Me those people will not see.
From the Dharma should one see the
Buddhas,
From the Dharmabodies comes their guidance.
Yet Dharma's true nature cannot be discerned,
And no one can be conscious of it as an object.
From the Dharmabodies comes their guidance.
Yet Dharma's true nature cannot be discerned,
And no one can be conscious of it as an object.
(27)
What do you think, Subhuti, has
the Tathagata fully known the utmost, right and perfect enlightenment through
his possession of marks? Not so should you see it, Subhuti. And why? Because
the Tathagata could surely not have fully known the utmost, right and perfect
enlightenment through his possession of marks.
Nor should anyone, Subhuti, say to
you, 'those who have set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle have conceived the
destruction of a dharma, or its annihilation'. Not so should you see it,
Subhuti! For those who have set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle have not
conceived the destruction of a dharma, or its annihilation.
(28)
And again, Subhuti, if a son or
daughter of good family had filled with the seven precious things as many world
systems as there are grains of sand in the river Ganges, and gave them as a
gift to the Tathagatas, Arhats, fully Enlightened Ones, and if on the other
hand a Bodhisattva would gain the patient acquiescence in dharmas which are
nothing of themselves and which fail to be produced, then this latter would on
the strength of that beget a greater heap of merit, immeasurable and
incalculable. Moreover, Subhuti, the Bodhisattva should not acquire a heap of
merit.
Subhuti said: Surely, O Lord, the
Bodhisattva should acquire a heap of merit?
The Lord said: 'Should acquire',
Subhuti, not 'should seize upon.' Therefore is it said, 'should acquire'.
(29)
Whosoever says that the Tathagata
goes or comes, stands, sits or lies down, he does not understand the meaning of
my teaching. And why? 'Tathagata' is called one who has not gone anywhere, nor
come from anywhere. Therefore is he called 'the Tathagata, the Arhat, the fully
Enlightened One'.
(30)
And again, Subhuti, if a son or
daughter of good family were to grind as many world systems as there are
particles of dust in this great world system of 1,000 million worlds, as finely
as they can be ground with incalculable vigour, and in fact reduce them to
something like a collection of atomic quantities, what do you think, Subhuti,
would that be an enormous collection of atomic quantities?
Subhuti replied: So it is, O Lord,
so it is, O Well-Gone, enormous would that collection of atomic quantities be!
And why? If, O Lord, there had
been an enormous collection of atomic quantities, the Lord would not have
called it an 'enormous collection of atomic quantities'. And why? What was
taught by the Tathagata as a 'collection of atomic quantities', as a
no-collection that was taught by the Tathagata. Therefore is it called a
'collection of atomic quantities'.
And what the Tathagata taught as
'the world system of 1,000 million worlds', that he has taught as a no-system. Therefore
is it called 'the world system of 1,000 million worlds'.
And why? If, O Lord, there had
been a world system, that would have been a case of seizing on a material
object, and what was taught as 'seizing on a material object' by the Tathagata,
just as a no-seizing was that taught by the Tathagata.
Therefore is it called 'seizing on
a material object'. The Lord added: And also, Subhuti, that 'seizing on a
material object' is a matter of linguistic convention, a verbal expression
without factual content. It is not a dharma nor a no-dharma. And yet the
foolish common people have seized upon it.
(31)
And why? Because whosoever would
say that the view of a self has been taught by the Tathagata, the view of a
being, the view of a living soul, the view of a person, would he, Subhuti, be
speaking right?
Subhuti replied: No indeed, O
Lord, no indeed, O Well-Gone, he would not be speaking right. And why? That
which has been taught by the Tathagata as 'view of self', as a no-view has that
been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore is it called 'view of self'.
The Lord said: It is thus,
Subhuti, that someone who has set out in the Bodhisattva-vehicle should know
all dharmas, view them, be intent on them. And he should know, view and be
intent on them in such a way that he does not set up the perception of a
dharma. And why? 'Perception of dharma, perception of dharma, 'Subhuti, as
no-perception has this been taught by the Tathagata. Therefore is it called
'perception of dharma'.
(32)
And finally, Subhuti, if a Bodhisattva,
a great being had filled world-systems immeasurable and incalculable with the
seven precious things, and gave them as a gift to the Tathagatas, the Arhats,
the fully Enlightened Ones, and if, on the other hand, a son or daughter of
good family had taken from this Prajnaparamita, this discourse on Dharma, but
one stanza of four lines, and were to bear it in mind, demonstrate, recite and
study it, and illuminate it in full detail for others, on the strength of that
this latter would beget a greater heap of merit, immeasurable and incalculable.
And how would he illuminate it? So as not to reveal. Therefore is it said, 'he
would illuminate'.
As stars, a fault of vision, as a
lamp,
A mock show, dew drops, or a bubble,
A dream, a lightning flash, or cloud,
So should one view what is conditioned.
Thus
spoke the Lord. Enraptured, the Elder Subhuti, the monks and nuns, the pious
laymen and laywomen, and the Bodhisattvas, and the whole world with its Gods,
men, Asuras and Gandharvas rejoiced in the Lord's teaching. - This completes
the Diamond-Cutter of Perfect Wisdom
A mock show, dew drops, or a bubble,
A dream, a lightning flash, or cloud,
So should one view what is conditioned.
