12.9
世間種種音聲相,眾以耳聽非目覩,唯此大士眼能觀,瞑目諦觀為佛事。於眼境界無所取,耳鼻舌身意亦然,善哉心洞十方空,六根互顯如是義。眼色耳聲鼻嗅香,身觸意思無差別,當以此觀如是觀,取此為實成妄想。若離妄想取實法,展轉惑亂失本心,本心既失隨顛倒,不見大士妙色身。無眼耳鼻舌身意,
互顯之義亦寂滅,亦無大士妙色身,亦無種種音聲相。佛子能作如是觀,永離世間生死苦。
Regarding the various kinds of sound-characteristics in the world,
the multitude listens with their ears, not seeing with their eyes.
Only this Great Being can view them with eyes,
closing the eyes and contemplating carefully to perform the Buddha's work.
Toward the sphere of the eye nothing is grasped;
the same holds for ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind.
Excellent! The mind penetrates the emptiness of the ten directions;
the six sense organs mutually manifest such a meaning.
Eye and form, ear and sound, nose and fragrance,
body and touch, mind and thought have no distinction.
One should contemplate with this contemplation;
to grasp this as real becomes false imagination.
If one departs from false imagination and grasps a real phenomenon,
one is confounded turn by turn and loses the original mind.
Once the original mind is lost, one follows inversions
and cannot see the Great Being's wondrous physical form.
There is no eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, or mind;
the meaning of their mutual manifestation is also extinct.
There is also no wondrous physical form of the Great Being,
nor are there various kinds of sound-characteristics.
If a disciple of the Buddha can make such a contemplation,
they will forever leave behind the worldly suffering of birth and death.
