法苑珠林 71.27

71.27

Seeking causes, the paths are indeed different;
Yet when casting off [the body], the destinies are still light.
At the extremity of suffering, one longs to return to joy;
At the extremity of joy, suffering is born again.
Is it not that the distinction between sin and merit
All stems from clinging feelings?
If one severs defiled karma,
One will always see the radiance of the Dharmakāya.
