### [13.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.13.13)

竊聞法王法力道濟無疆。大慈大悲聲高有頂。隨根普雨靉靆密雲。觸類等觀朗同明鏡。是以金容誕迹。遂致恒星匿彩。月愛舒光。便使晨曦掩色。八音纔吐。則尼揵轍亂。七辯暫宣。則富那旗靡。故知威神尊重利益弘深。隨喜見聞則難遭難遇。勸諸行者。常須觀佛。心存妙色似對目前。意想光儀如臨咫尺。雖法身無二隨應說三。逗機弘誘乃有多種。今且錄經。後述靈驗。餘之不盡。備在廣文。

> I have heard that the Dharma King's power of Dharma delivers beings without limit; his great loving-kindness and great compassion resound as high as Bhavāgra. Adapting to capacities, he showers rain everywhere like dense, gathered clouds; contemplating all categories equally, he shines bright like a clear mirror. Thus, when his golden countenance manifested its traces, the fixed stars hid their radiance; when the beloved moon spread its beams, the morning sun obscured its light. No sooner did his eight tones issue forth than the Nirgranthas fell into disarray; no sooner were his seven eloquences proclaimed than the banners of Pūrṇa collapsed. Thus we know that his divine authority is dignified and profound, and the benefit \[he confers\] is vastly deep. Rejoicing in accordance with what is seen and heard is indeed rare to encounter. I exhort all practitioners to constantly contemplate the Buddha: keep in mind his wondrous form as if directly before your eyes; envision his radiant bearing as though only inches away. Although the Dharmakāya is non-dual, according to capacity three \[vehicles\] are expounded; in matching faculties with vast guidance, there are manifold approaches. Now I shall first record the scriptures, and afterwards recount miraculous proofs. What remains unfinished is fully detailed in the extensive texts.
