1.53

復次,菩薩知無身性,息等諸法不名為身;離息等法,亦無別身。爾時知身非身,即破慳身之執。既不慳於身,即能以身為奴僕給使,如法施與前人。當知了知息非息,即能具足成就捨身檀波羅蜜。

Furthermore, the bodhisattva knows that there is no bodily nature, and that breath and other dharmas are not called the body; apart from breath and other dharmas, there is also no separate body. At that time, knowing that the body is non-body, they destroy the clinging of stinginess regarding the body. Since they are not stingy regarding the body, they are able to use the body as a servant to attend and serve, bestowing it in accordance with the Dharma upon others. Know that understanding that breath is non-breath allows one to fully accomplish the dānapāramitā of renouncing the body.
