「今既如是，此法門中，何名坐禪？此法門中，一切無礙，外於一切境界上念不起為坐，見本性不亂為禪。何名為禪定？外離相曰禪，內不亂曰定。外若離相，內性不亂。本性自淨曰定，只緣境觸，觸即亂，離相不亂即定。外離相即禪，內不亂即定，外禪內定，故名禪定。《維摩經》云：『即時豁然，還得本心。』《梵網菩薩戒經》云：『本源自性清淨。』善知識！見自性自淨，自修自作自性法身，自行佛行，自作自成佛道。

> "Now that this is so, in this Dharma door, what is called sitting in meditation? In this Dharma door, everything is unobstructed: outwardly, not having thoughts arise toward any sensory realm is sitting; seeing the original nature without disturbance is meditation. What is called dhyāna-samādhi? Outwardly being detached from forms is called dhyāna; inwardly being undisturbed is called samādhi. If one is outwardly detached from forms, the inner nature will not be disturbed. The original nature being naturally pure is called samādhi; it is only because of contact with realms that contact brings disturbance, and detachment from forms without disturbance is samādhi. Outwardly being detached from forms is dhyāna; inwardly being undisturbed is samādhi. Outward dhyāna and inward samādhi—therefore it is called dhyāna-samādhi. The Vimalakīrti Sūtra says: 'Suddenly and completely, one regains one's original mind.' The Brahmā Net Bodhisattva Precept Sūtra says: 'The original source of one's own-nature is pure.' Kalyāṇamitras! See that your own-nature is inherently pure; cultivate yourself and make your own-nature dharmakāya; practice the Buddha's conduct yourself, and accomplish the Buddha Way yourself."
