金剛三昧經論 2.100

2.100

經曰　佛言：「不。何以故？譬如迷子手執金錢而不知有，遊行十方經五十年，貧窮困苦，專事求索而以養身，而不充足。其父見子有如是事，而謂子言：『汝執金錢，何不取用？隨意所須皆得充足。』其子醒已而得金錢，心大歡喜，而謂得錢。其父謂言：『迷子！汝勿欣懌。所得金錢是汝本物。汝非有得，云何可喜？』」

The sūtra states: The Buddha said: 'No. For what reason? It is like a lost son holding gold coins in his hand without knowing he has them, who wanders in the ten directions for fifty years, destitute, impoverished, and suffering hardship, devoted solely to seeking [alms] to sustain his body, yet never finding sufficiency. His father, seeing that his son is in such circumstances, says to the son: "You are holding gold coins; why do you not take and use them? Whatever you desire will be fully supplied." The son, having come to his senses and obtained the gold coins, is filled with great joy in his heart, thinking that he has obtained coins. His father says to him: "Lost son! Do not rejoice. The gold coins you obtained are your original possessions. You have not attained anything; how can you be joyful?"'
