釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 10.51

10.51

行者外骨觀既成，復當定心諦觀內身白骨，鍊使明淨，如珂如貝。當自觀骨時，見外一切骨人悉皆起立，行行相對羅列，舉手而來。行者於三昧中即知此諸骨人皆是隨想而來，無有定實，心不驚怖。復當心默念，訶此骨人：「咄！汝諸骨人，從何而來！」如是訶時，悉見骨人悉還躄地，如是或至多反。

Once the practitioner's contemplation of external bones is accomplished, they should again, with a concentrated mind, carefully contemplate the white bones of their internal body, refining them to be bright and pure, like cornelian or mother-of-pearl. While contemplating their own bones, they see all external skeletons rise and stand, lining up in rows facing one another, raising their hands and approaching. Within samādhi, the practitioner immediately knows that all these skeletons have merely come following one's thoughts and have no fixed reality; their mind is neither alarmed nor terrified. Furthermore, their mind should silently think and scold these skeletons: 'Halt! You skeletons, where have you come from!' When scolded in this way, they see all the skeletons collapse back to the ground; this may occur many times.
