次當想佛。所以者何？諸佛如來是法界身，入一切眾生心想中。是故汝等心想佛時，是心即是三十二相八十隨形好。是心作佛、是心是佛，諸佛正遍知海從心想生。是故應當一心繫念，諦觀彼佛。

> "Next you should think of the Buddha. Why is that? The buddhas, the Tathāgatas, are the dharmadhātu body, entering into the minds and thoughts of all sentient beings. Therefore, when your minds think of the Buddha, this mind is itself the thirty-two marks and eighty minor characteristics. This mind creates the Buddha; this mind is the Buddha. The ocean of all buddhas' true universal knowledge is born from mind and thought. Therefore, you should single-mindedly tie your thoughts and clearly contemplate that buddha."
