注維摩詰經 4.50

4.50

肇曰：自此下大明菩提義也。道之極者稱曰菩提，秦無言以譯之。菩提者，蓋是正覺無相之真智乎。其道虛玄、妙絕常境，聽者無以容其聽、智者無以運其智，辯者無以措其言、像者無以狀其儀。故其為道也，微妙無相不可為有、用之彌懃不可為無，故能幽鑑萬物而不曜、玄軌超駕而弗夷，大包天地而罔寄、曲濟群惑而無私。至能導達殊方、開物成務，玄機必察、無思無慮。然則無知而無不知、無為而無不為者，其唯菩提大覺之道乎。此無名之法，固非名所能名也。不知所以言，故強名曰菩提。斯無為之道，豈可以身心而得乎？生曰：若見有菩提可得者，則有相情也。苟以相為情者，豈能不以之起身心行乎？若以身心行求菩提者，則求之愈遠者也。

[Seng]zhao says: From here below, the meaning of bodhi is fully illuminated. The culmination of the Way is called bodhi; in the Qin language, there are no words to translate it. Bodhi is indeed the true wisdom of formless, correct awakening. Its Way is empty and profound, wonderfully transcending ordinary realms. Hearers have no means to contain it in their hearing; the wise have no means to apply their intellect to it; the eloquent have no means to set forth words for it; the depictor has no means to portray its form. Therefore, as for its being the Way, it is subtle and formless, so it cannot be considered existent; yet its function is ever active, so it cannot be considered non-existent. Hence it can mysteriously illuminate all things without dazzling, and its profound tracks transcend all paths without flattening them; it vast encompasses Heaven and Earth without depending on anything, and subtly delivers the confused multitudes without partiality. It can reach so far as to guide disparate regions, revealing phenomena and accomplishing undertakings; it unfailingly discerns profound mechanisms, without deliberate thought or deliberation. Thus, knowing nothing yet knowing all, doing nothing yet leaving nothing undone—is this not solely the Way of the great awakening of bodhi? This nameless dharma certainly cannot be named by any name. Not knowing how to speak of it, one arbitrarily names it bodhi. How could this unconditioned Way be attained by body or mind? [Dao]sheng says: If one sees that there is a bodhi to be attained, then that is an affective state bound to marks. If one takes marks as an affective state, how could one not thereby give rise to bodily and mental actions? If one seeks bodhi through bodily and mental actions, one's seeking will only stray farther from it.
