大毘盧遮那成佛神變加持經 (Shubhakarasimha & Yixing 724) 6.31

6.31

teries, saying, “Listen attentively, Lord of Mysteries! With respect to the mantra world-savior, there is not any difference between its body and the body [of the practitioner]. The mind arises from the mind, and when it has been well purified, light flows forth everywhere therefrom and arises correspondingly throughout the limbs. The likes of [ordinary] foolish people never know this, nor do they attain this path. Furthermore, because the reduplication [bodies] born of the body are of immeasurable kinds, in the same way the reduplication [bodies] of the mantra world-savior are also said to be immeasurable. It is, for example, like the auspicious cintāmaṇi, which brings about benefits according to one’s desires. In this manner, there are no objectives whatsoever that the body of the world’s world-illuminator (i.e., Aṃ) does not accomplish.

“Lord of Mysteries, how do all activities unfold in the Dharma realm, which is undifferentiated? Lord of Mysteries, again it is like the realm of empty space, which is not a being, not a life-force, not a manuja (man), not a mānava (human), not an agent, not a veda[ka] (perceiver/experiencer), not a grasper, and not a grasped object, and is dissociated from all differentiation and nondifferentiation, and yet all comings and goings and all actions in the inexhaustible realms of beings do not give rise to doubts [regarding their occurrence]. In this manner the knowledge of an omniscient one, which is without differentiation, is commensurate with empty space and functions internally and externally for all beings.”

Then the World-honored One also proclaimed phrases that purify inexhaustible realms of beings, phrases that bring forth samādhi, phrases that are inconceivable, and phrases that are gateways to transforming others.

If existents, though originally nonexistent, arise in conformity with

the world,

How does the understanding of emptiness arise in this yogin?

Their own-nature being thus, he realizes that names are

inapprehensible,

And [then] the spacelike mind, namely, the bodhi-mind, will arise.

He should generate compassion, conforming with all worlds,

And abide in the practice of thought-only—this is termed “buddhas.”

He should know that [even emptiness] is created by thought, and

observing this, he regards emptiness as empty.

Just as the method of counting numbers operates with [numbers]

being distinguished by increases of one,

So too, Striving Hero, is emptiness, increasing sequentially.

These letters A and so on are, namely, empowered by spontaneous

knowledge.
