答曰：菩薩身雖捨離，而心不捨。如人有病，將身服藥，暫息事業，病差則修業如故。菩薩亦爾，身雖暫捨眾生，而心常憐愍，於閑靜處服禪定藥，得實智慧，除煩惱病，起六神足，還生六道，廣度眾生。以如是等種種因緣，菩薩摩訶薩發意修禪波羅蜜，心如金剛，天魔、外道及諸二乘無能沮壞。

> Answer: Although the bodhisattva bodily renounces and departs, their mind does not abandon \[them\]. Just as a sick person takes their body to ingest medicine, temporarily halting business, and once the illness is cured resumes business as before, the bodhisattva is also like this: although bodily relinquishing sentient beings temporarily, their mind constantly has pity; ingesting the medicine of dhyāna-concentration in a secluded and quiet place, obtaining true wisdom, eradicating the disease of afflictions, and giving rise to the six supernormal powers, they return to be reborn in the six destinies and broadly deliver sentient beings. Through such various conditions, when the bodhisattva-mahāsattva resolves to cultivate the dhyāna-pāramitā, their mind is like vajra, which heavenly māras, non-Buddhists, and the followers of the two vehicles cannot ruin or destroy.
