1.24
牟尼是梵語,華言寂默,佛之名也。此言人能如是觀佛寂靜之體從遠離而生,是則於佛不生取著,故今世後世皆得清淨。《入楞伽》云:「若見於牟尼,寂靜遠離生,是人今後世,離著無所取。」辭義尤顯。已上諸偈讚佛,皆言離著者,蓋讚佛生善。若不離著,生善不深故也。
"Muni" is Sanskrit; in Chinese it is translated as "silent one," which is an epithet of the Buddha. This means that if a person can contemplate the silent, tranquil essence of the Buddha as arising from detachment, they will not give rise to grasping with regard to the Buddha; thus in both the present life and future lives they will attain purity. The Entry into Laṅkā says: "If one sees the Muni / As arising from tranquil detachment, / In this life and future lives / One is free from grasping and has nothing to seize." The phrasing and meaning are even clearer. In all the preceding verses praising the Buddha, they all speak of being free from grasping because praising the Buddha engenders wholesome [roots]. If one is not free from grasping, the wholesome [roots] engendered will not be profound.
