One can steer an iron boat into the sea, one can make a millstone fly spinning through the sky; half-closed and half-open, forming a ball, forming a lump, none can ever step outside the Great Perfect Enlightenment. If there is someone who can step outside the Great Perfect Enlightenment, they can act contrarily or adaptively, horizontally or vertically, killing or bringing to life with total freedom. Therefore, the Bodhisattva Mañjuśrī spent a single summer retreat in three places: one month in Māra's palace, one month in a householder's home, and one month in a brothel. Having spent the summer retreat in three places, he then entered the World-Honoured One's assembly to conclude the retreat, which seemed utterly unfair. Therefore Kāśyapa wished to strike the gavel to expel Mañjuśrī. But no sooner had he raised this thought than he saw in the assembly immeasurable Śākyamunis, immeasurable Mañjuśrīs, immeasurable Kāśyapas, and immeasurable gaṇḍīs. Once Kāśyapa saw this, his eyes stared blankly and his mouth gaped open. Why? A person of extraordinary measure possesses extraordinary vision and extraordinary function. Even the golden-hued ascetic, upon arriving here, could neither pull back his hands nor extend them. Just at such a time, is it inside the Great Perfect Enlightenment, or outside the Great Perfect Enlightenment? Only a capable adept who has opened through can bear witness to this. Why? This is the realm of the great beings Mañjuśrī and Samantabhadra. If one penetrates the realm of Mañjuśrī and Samantabhadra, then the boundless oceans of fragrant water and the immeasurable, countless dust-mote Buddha-lands are all places of retreat; further, appearing in boundless bodies, walking, standing, sitting, and lying down everywhere, they do not obstruct one another, nor do they touch hands. Just at such a time, if one is a connoisseur, upon it being raised, one knows immediately. Therefore, although Tianning has resided in retreat with the great assembly for ninety days, after all, do you all know? If you penetrate from top to bottom, that is the realm of Mañjuśrī and Samantabhadra; if you do not penetrate from top to bottom, that is the realm of Kāśyapa. Leaving aside Mañjuśrī and Kāśyapa, how do you utter the single phrase that gathers the cause and brings the result? Do you fully understand yet? The work of ninety days is now complete; / Open wide the cloth bag, and roam freely each in your own way." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 11.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11.8) - [Next: 11.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11.10) - [Up: 11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997~en-mt.11.9) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1997.11.9) · Pramāṇa
