觀心論疏 1.14

1.14

偈云：「平等真法界，無行無能到，若能問觀心，能行亦能到。」此下五行半偈，明信順佛之遺囑，則是佛之真子，翻前之迷為今解行也。言平等真法界，無行無能到者，然中道真法界之理，寂絕無相，無為無人無法，非境非智，豈有人之能行、法之可到者也？然雖無行無到，若能研心，圓修三觀、念處，即到究竟涅槃之彼岸也。

The verse says: / 'To the equal, true dharma-realm, / there is no practice and none can arrive. / If one can inquire into the contemplation of mind, / one can practice and can arrive.' / The five and a half verses from here clarify that believing and complying with the Buddha's bequest makes one a true son of the Buddha, overturning the former confusion into the present understanding and practice. As for 'to the equal, true dharma-realm, there is no practice and none can arrive': the principle of the Middle Way's true dharma-realm is quiescent, absolute, and signless; unconditioned, with neither person nor phenomenon, neither object nor wisdom. How could there be a person who can practice, or a phenomenon to be arrived at? Yet although there is no practice and no arriving, if one can investigate the mind and perfectly cultivate the three contemplations and the smṛtyupasthānas, one arrives at the other shore of ultimate nirvāṇa.
