### [10.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.10.20)

修道者請小參：「天地與我同根，其根深固；萬物與我一體，其體虛凝。萬物之根亘古亘今，堅固之體包含萬有，毫茫得意，可以點鐵成金，可以轉凡作聖，如理如事，即處即真，一念不生前後際斷。所以道：『不思議解脫力，妙用恒沙也無極。』若論妙用去，可以擊碎業山，可以點竭苦海，可以懺不懺之罪，可以解不解之冤，可以起必死之疾，可以證無生法忍。正當恁麼時，不立功勳一句作麼生道？還委悉麼？千年闇室一燈破，萬劫愆尤一句消。」頌云：「阿闍被疾投皇覺，調御垂慈放月光，法藥之功同佛力，自然身病得清涼。」

> Requested for an informal gathering by Practitioner Xiu: "Heaven and earth share the same root with me, and their root is deep and firm; the ten thousand things are of one body with me, and their body is void and congealed. The root of the ten thousand things spans past and present; the firm and solid body encompasses all existence. If one grasps the meaning by a minute hair's breadth, one can turn iron into gold and transform the ordinary into the sagely; in accordance with principle and in accordance with phenomena, just where one is, right there is truth; when not a single thought arises, the limits before and after are severed. Therefore it is said: 'The power of inconceivable liberation: its wondrous functions are like the sands of the Ganges, also boundless.' If one speaks of wondrous function, it can smash the mountain of karma, drain dry the ocean of suffering, repent sins that cannot be repented, untie grievances that cannot be untied, raise up illnesses that must lead to death, and realize the patience with the non-arising of dharmas. Just at such a moment, how do you say a phrase that establishes no merit? Do you still understand? In a dark room of a thousand years, a single lamp dispels it; the errors and faults of ten thousand kalpas are eliminated by a single phrase." A verse says: "When Ajāta\[śatru\] was afflicted with illness, he took refuge in the Sovereign of Enlightenment; / The Regulator, extending compassion, released the moonlight. / The efficacy of the Dharma medicine is equal to the power of the Buddha; / Naturally, the body's sickness attained coolness."
