廣弘明集 30.276

30.276

真朴運既判。萬象森已形。精靈感冥會。變化靡不經。波浪生死徒。彌綸始無名。捨本而逐末。悔吝生有情胡不絕可欲。反宗歸無生。達觀均有無。蟬蛻豁朗明。逍遙眾妙津。栖凝於玄冥。大慈順變通。化育曷常停。幽閑自有所。豈與菩薩并。摩詰風微指。權道多所成。悠悠滿天下。孰識秋露情。

Once primordial simplicity was divided, / the ten thousand forms stood dense in bodily shape. / Spirits resonate in dark union; / of transformations, there are none that are not undergone. / Drifting like waves are the disciples of birth and death; / all-encompassing at first was the nameless. / Abandoning the root to pursue the branches, / regret and remorse arise among sentient beings. / Why not sever what is desirable, / and return to the source to revert to non-arising? / Clear insight equates existence and non-existence; / molting like a cicada, one opens into bright clarity. / Wandering at ease through the ford of myriad wonders, / resting and congealing in the dark and obscure. / Great Compassion accords with adaptive change; / how could its transforming and nurturing ever cease? / Quiet seclusion has its place, / but how could it rival a bodhisattva? / Vimalakīrti set forth subtle pointers; / his expedient paths accomplished much. / Vast and drifting, [such folk] fill all under Heaven; / yet who understands the sentiment of the autumn dew?
