### [1.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1875.1.38)

四、生佛家者，佛以真如法界無生之理為家，今見塵無生無性時，即此智從無生法顯生，故名生佛家也。經云「於法不分別，是則從如生。」又云「普於三世佛法中，知無生已而化生。」但契義理，即名生佛家，是佛之子，亦名佛出現也（有本云無生之理，菩提涅槃為家）。

> Fourth, being born in the Buddha's family: the Buddha takes the unarisen principle of the tathatā-dharmadhātu as his home. Now, when one sees that the dust mote is unarisen and lacks intrinsic nature, this very wisdom is manifest and born from unarisen phenomena; therefore it is called being born in the Buddha's family. The sūtra says: "Not conceptualizing phenomena, / one is thus born from suchness." It also says: "Universally among the Buddhadharmas of the three times, / having known non-arising, one is transformatively born." Simply conforming to the meaning and principle is called being born in the Buddha's family; one is a child of the Buddha, which is also called the appearance of the Buddha (one edition says: taking the unarisen principle, bodhi and nirvāṇa as home).
