淨土生無生論 1.21

1.21

答曰：「介爾之心，昧者謂小，達人大觀，真妄無二。蓋此妄心全性而起，性無邊，心亦無際，性如大海，心似浮漚，全海為漚，漚還匝海。蓋真如不變隨緣，隨緣不變。既曰『隨緣不變』，豈可以真妄而局大小哉！」

Answer: 'The deluded call this single momentary thought-mind small, but those of great realization take a comprehensive view: the true and the false are not two. For this false mind arises entirely from the nature: the nature is boundless, and the mind is likewise limitless. The nature is like the great ocean; the mind is like a floating bubble. The entire ocean becomes the bubble, and the bubble encompasses the ocean. Indeed, true suchness, unchanging, accords with conditions; according with conditions, it is unchanging. Since it is said that "according with conditions, it is unchanging," how could one restrict the great and the small on the basis of the true and the false?'
