念佛三昧寶王論 3.20

3.20

「『譬如人，於夢中，得佛道，度眾生，
此無道，無眾生，佛法性，亦復然。
坐道場，無所得，若不得，則不有，
明無明，同一相，知如是，為世尊。
眾生性，即菩提，菩提性，即眾生，
菩薩眾，亦不二，知如是，為世尊。』」

"Just as a person in a dream
attains the Buddha's path and delivers sentient beings,
yet here there is no path and no sentient beings—
the dharma-nature of the Buddha is also like this.
Sitting at the bodhimaṇḍa, there is nothing to be attained;
if nothing is attained, then it does not exist.
Clarity and ignorance share the same single mark;
one who knows this is a World-Honored One.
The nature of sentient beings is itself bodhi;
the nature of bodhi is itself sentient beings.
The bodhisattva host is also non-dual;
one who knows this is a World-Honored One."
