法苑珠林 12.81

12.81

遙欣大覺　曠矣神功　四禪無像
三達皆空　千佛異迹　一智心同
表靈降世　敷演開曚　賢劫始四
餘佛潛通　續前有七　繼嗣虔恭
永言鷲室　栖誠梵宮　八相成道
萬德虛融　天人受福　惡止善興
含生藉甚　同感恩隆

From afar we rejoice in the Great Awakened One; / vast indeed is his divine merit! / The four dhyānas are free of form, / the three knowledges are all void. / The thousand Buddhas leave distinct traces, / yet in their single wisdom, their minds are one. / Manifesting the wondrous, he descended to the world, / expounding and opening up the unenlightened. / The Bhadrakalpa begins with the four; / with the remaining Buddhas he secretly communicates. / Succeeding the earlier there were seven; / each inheriting the lineage with reverent respect. / Forever mindful of the Vulture Peak chamber, / reposing devotion in the Brahmā palace. / With the eight phases he perfected the Path; / the myriad virtues melt into the void. / Gods and humans receive blessings; / evil is halted, and goodness flourishes. / Sentient beings are greatly honored, / together feeling gratitude for his boundless benevolence.
