The Teaching on the Nature of All Phenomena

Then the Bhagavān said to the youth Candraprabha, “Therefore, young man, bodhisattva mahāsattvas who wonder, ‘How can I know the nature of all phenomena?’ should listen to this samādhi, the revealed equality of the nature of all phenomena, learn it, understand it, keep it, recite it to others, promote it, proclaim it, chant it, meditate on it with unadulterated meditation, promulgate it, and make it widely known to others.”

Thereupon the Bhagavān spoke these verses:

“In the ones who know the peace that is the nature of phenomena
No desire arises, no anger arises,
Nor in those great leaders does ignorance ever arise.
They have eliminated all kleśas without remainder. {1}

“They who know the peace that is the nature of phenomena
Are heart children of the Sugata who do not abandon the training.
They are heroes who never fall under the power of women.
Everywhere they rejoice in the teaching of the sugatas. {2}

“They who know the peace that is the nature of phenomena
Are wise, sagacious, and know the way of wisdom.¹⁰³⁴
They see infinite, endless buddhas
And know infinite dhāraṇīs¹⁰³⁵ and wisdom.¹⁰³⁶ {3}

“They who know the peace that is the nature of phenomena
Will before long become a lord of humans.
They know the skills of healing and bestow happiness,¹⁰³⁷
And they are able to remove all the pain of suffering.¹⁰³⁸ {4}

“They who know the peace that is the nature of phenomena
Know that sentient beings are suffering.
They always beat the drum of the elixir.
They will before long become a guide.¹⁰³⁹ {5}

“They are the supreme physicians, skilled in healing.
They know the origin of all illnesses and how to be freed from them.
