南宗頓教最上大乘摩訶般若波羅蜜經六祖惠能大師於韶州大梵寺施法壇經 1.45

1.45

「說通及心通，如日處虛空，
惟傳頓教法，出世破邪宗。
教即無頓漸，迷悟有遲疾，
若學頓教法，愚人不可悉。
說即雖萬般，合理還歸一，
煩惱暗宅中，常須生惠日。
邪來因煩惱，正來煩惱除，
邪正悉不用，清淨至無餘。
菩提本清淨，起心即是妄，
淨性於妄中，但正除三障。
世間若修道，一切盡不妨，
常見在己過，與道即相當。
色類自有道，離道別覓道，
覓道不見道，到頭還自懊。
若欲覓真道，行正即是道，
自若無正心，暗行不見道。
若真修道人，不見世間過，
若見世間非，自非却是左。
他非我不罪，我非自有罪，
但自去非心，打破煩惱碎。
若欲化愚人，事須有方便，
勿令彼有疑，即是菩提現。
法原在世間，於世出世間，
勿離世間上，外求出世間。
邪見在世間，正見出世間，
邪正悉打却，菩提性宛然。此但是頓教，
亦名為大乘，迷來經累劫，
悟即剎那間。」

"Penetrating the teaching and penetrating the mind, / Is like the sun abiding in empty space.
Only transmitting the Dharma of the sudden teaching, / Appearing in the world to demolish false doctrines.
The teaching is without sudden or gradual, / Delusion and awakening are slow or rapid.
If one studies the Dharma of the sudden teaching, / The foolish cannot fathom it.
Though explanations may have ten thousand kinds, / When joined to principle they all return to the One.
Within the dark house of kleśas, / One must constantly give birth to the sun of prajñā.
Falsehood arrives because of kleśas; / When correctness arrives, kleśas are removed.
Use neither falsehood nor correctness; / Purity reaches the unremaindered.
Bodhi is originally pure; / Giving rise to a mind is itself delusion.
The pure nature is within delusion; / Just be upright and remove the three hindrances.
If one cultivates the Way in the mundane world, / Nothing whatsoever is an obstacle.
Constantly seeing the faults within oneself, / One is immediately in accord with the Way.
Species of form have their own Way; / Leaving the Way to seek another Way,
Seeking the Way without seeing the Way, / In the end brings only self-reproach.
If you wish to seek the true Way, / Walking upright is itself the Way.
If you lack an upright mind yourself, / Walking in darkness you will not see the Way.
If one is a true cultivator of the Way, / One does not see the faults of the world.
If one sees the wrongs of the world, / One's own wrong is itself an error.
The other's wrong is not my sin; / My own wrong is my own sin.
Simply eliminate the wrong mind yourself; / Shatter kleśas to pieces.
If you wish to convert the foolish, / You must employ upāya.
Do not cause them to have doubts, / And that is bodhi manifesting.
The Dharma is originally in the mundane world; / In the world it transcends the world.
Do not leave the world / To seek transcendence outside.
Wrong views are in the mundane world; / Right views transcend the world.
Cast away both wrong and right, / And the nature of bodhi is vividly present.
This is solely the sudden teaching, / Also called the Mahāyāna.
Delusion lasts through accumulated kalpas; / Awakening occurs in a kṣaṇa."
