大慧普覺禪師語錄 2.40

2.40

徽宗皇帝大祥上堂，拈香罷乃就座云：「身從無相中受生，猶如幻出諸形像，幻人心識本來無，罪福皆空無所住。從上諸聖，莫不皆從無所住處成就眾生，於無所住處示現降神處胎十月，於無所住處示現誕生，於無所住處示現行七步，於無所住處示現處王宮，於無所住處示現出家，於無所住處示現行菩行，於無所住處示現坐菩提樹下成等正覺，於無所住處示現降伏魔軍，於無所住處示現坐道場轉法輪度有情，於無所住處示現授諸菩薩阿耨多羅三藐三菩提記，於無所住處作佛事已示現入般涅槃。」召大眾云：「從上諸聖既如是示現，今日臣僧宗杲亦如是說法，只將如是之法，恭為徽宗聖文仁德顯孝皇帝、顯肅皇后，用嚴仙駕，伏願不守自性普現塵中，堅密身同彼上人，住不思議解脫海。」下座。

Ascending the high seat on the great auspicious sacrifice (two-year memorial) for Emperor Huizong, having offered incense, he took his seat and said: "'The body receives birth from within the formless, / Just like various forms produced by illusion; / An illusory person's mind and consciousness are originally non-existent; / Sins and blessings are both empty, having no place to abide.' From ancient times, the sages without exception have brought sentient beings to completion from the place of non-abiding. From the place of non-abiding they manifested descending the spirit and dwelling in the womb for ten months; from the place of non-abiding they manifested taking birth; from the place of non-abiding they manifested walking seven steps; from the place of non-abiding they manifested residing in the royal palace; from the place of non-abiding they manifested leaving the household; from the place of non-abiding they manifested practising the bodhisattva conduct; from the place of non-abiding they manifested sitting under the Bodhi tree and realising equal and perfect awakening; from the place of non-abiding they manifested subduing Māra's army; from the place of non-abiding they manifested sitting in the bodhimaṇḍa, turning the Dharma wheel, and saving sentient beings; from the place of non-abiding they manifested conferring on bodhisattvas the prediction of anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi; from the place of non-abiding, having completed the buddha-work, they manifested entering parinirvāṇa." Addressing the assembly, he said, "Since the past sages manifested like this, today the subject-monk Zonggao also preaches the Dharma like this. Solely using such Dharma, I respectfully adorn the celestial carriage of Emperor Huizong, Sage of Literary Arts, Benevolent and Virtuous, Manifestly Filial, and Empress Xiansu, humbly praying that without abiding in their own nature, they manifest universally among the dusts, their firm and secret bodies identical to those superior beings, dwelling in the ocean of inconceivable liberation." He stepped down from the seat.
