### [16.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.16.33)

諸佛同證無為體　真如理實本無緣  
為誘諸天現兜率　其猶幻士出眾形  
元無人馬迷將有　達者知幻未曾然  
佛身本淨皆如是　愚夫不了謂同凡  
知佛無來見真佛　於茲必得永長歡  
故我頂禮彌勒佛　唯願慈尊度有情

> All Buddhas equally realize the unconditioned essence;  
> The truth of tathatā is fundamentally without conditions.  
> To guide the devas, he manifests in Tuṣita,  
> Just as an illusionist produces various forms.  
> Where originally there were no men or horses, the deluded take them as real;  
> Those who have realized know illusion never truly was.  
> The Buddha’s body is fundamentally pure, always like this;  
> Foolish mortals do not comprehend, deeming him the same as ordinary beings.  
> Knowing the Buddha has no coming, one sees the true Buddha;  
> Herein one will surely attain everlasting joy.  
> Therefore I bow my head to Maitreya Buddha;  
> I only pray the Compassionate Honoured One will deliver sentient beings.
