摩訶止觀 2.36

2.36

As for exhorting cultivation, the Samantabhadra Contemplation Sūtra states: 'If members of the seven assemblies break the precepts, and wish in the snap of a finger to eliminate the sins of samsāra accumulated over hundreds of thousands of myriads of koṭis of asaṃkhyeya kalpas;' 'if they wish to generate the bodhicitta, enter nirvāṇa without cutting off afflictions, and purify the sense faculties to see things beyond obstructions without abandoning the five desires;' 'if they wish to see the emanations, Prabhūtaratna, and Śākyamuni Buddha;' 'if they wish to attain the Lotus Samādhi and the dhāraṇī of all languages;' 'to enter the Tathāgata's room, wear the Tathāgata's robes, and sit on the Tathāgata's seat;' 'to expound the Dharma among the assembly of the eight classes of devas and nāgas;' 'if they wish to have Mañjuśrī, Bhaiṣajyarāja, and all great bodhisattvas holding flowers and incense, standing in the air to attend upon them;' '[they] should cultivate this Lotus Sūtra, read and recite the Mahāyāna, and be mindful of Mahāyāna matters;' 'cause this wisdom of emptiness to correspond with the mind;' 'be mindful of the mother of all bodhisattvas, the supreme and excellent expedients born from contemplating true reality;' 'the multitude of sins are like frost and dew, which the sun of wisdom can eliminate;' 'bring such matters to accomplishment so that none are not fulfilled;' 'one who can uphold this sūtra will behold me, and also behold you, and also make offerings to Prabhūtaratna and the emanations, causing all Buddhas to rejoice'—as the sūtra explains at length. Who, having heard such a Dharma, would not generate the bodhicitta? Except for those worthless people who are ignorant, blind, and devoid of wisdom.
