法苑珠林 20.71

20.71

若欲禮佛者　過去及當來
說於現在中　當觀於空法
若欲禮佛者　過去及當來
現在及諸佛　當計於無我
善業以先禮　最初無過者
空無解脫門　此是禮佛義
若欲禮佛者　當來及過去
當觀空無法　此名禮佛義

"If one wishes to pay homage to the Buddhas / of the past and the future,
[and to those who] preach in the present, / one should contemplate the dharma of emptiness.
If one wishes to pay homage to the Buddhas / of the past and the future,
and the Buddhas of the present, / one should consider non-self.
Paying homage first through wholesome karma / is initially without fault;
the gate of liberation through emptiness and nothingness— / this is the meaning of paying homage to the Buddha.
If one wishes to pay homage to the Buddhas / of the future and the past,
one should contemplate the dharma of emptiness and non-existence; / this is called the meaning of paying homage to the Buddha."
