2.15

“I have praised supreme wakefulness,
For the purpose of remaining vigilant day and night.
Although one may exert oneself for hundreds of eons,
Nothing increases and nothing diminishes.

“Beings have been taught the excellence of meditation, liberation, and samādhi,
As well as their points of entry.
Although there is no end to the doctrines they contain,
I have taught them after determining their sections.

“Stating that phenomena must be understood through wisdom,
I have taught on wisdom, insight, and the intellect.
And yet, nature and its lack can never be understood,
But it is still necessary to teach them.

“I have taught the world that asceticism is bad,
Saying, ‘Take delight in cultivating isolation and contentment!’⁶⁴
Anything that cannot be attained through contentment⁶⁵
Is not to be found in this Dharma.⁶⁶

“I have taught about the frightening hells
That terrify many thousands of beings.
And yet, there is no one who, upon death,
Takes a terrifying rebirth.⁶⁷

“There is no one who inflicts harm
With a sword, a spear, or a blade.
It is through the power of concepts that in those lower realms
Nonexistent weapons are seen to fall upon the body.

“There is no one who has made
The various delightful, blossoming flowers
And pleasant, radiant golden palaces;
They manifest through the power of concepts.

“The world is fabricated by concepts;
Fools discriminate by clinging to ideas.
Clinging and non-clinging do not exist;
Fabrications are like illusions and mirages.

“Although I have taught exalted, supreme conduct,
Saying, ‘Generate the mind of awakening for the benefit of beings!’⁶⁸
There is no awakening to be observed;
That which is desired simply does not exist.

“I have taught that the mind is luminous and pure by nature,
That it is dustless, free of dust, and stainless.
Fools conceptualize that which is nonexistent,
And so they develop desire, anger, and delusion.
