善住意天子所問經云。天子問文殊曰。何等比丘得名禪師。文殊曰。於一切法。一行思量。所謂不生。若如是知。得名禪師。乃至無有少法可取。不取何法。所謂不取此世後世。不取三界至一切法悉不取。謂一切法悉無。眾生如是不取。得名禪師。無少取非取不取於一切法悉無所得故無憶念若不憶念彼則不修若不修者彼則不證故名禪師。

The *Sūtra of the Inquiries of the Deva Supratiṣṭhitamati* says: The deva asked Mañjuśrī: "What kind of bhikṣu obtains the name 'Chan master'?" Mañjuśrī said: "Regarding all dharmas, one single practice of contemplation, namely non-arising. If one knows thus, one obtains the name 'Chan master.' Even unto having not the slightest dharma that can be grasped. What dharmas are not grasped? That is to say, not grasping this world or future worlds, not grasping the three realms, up to not grasping all dharmas whatsoever, meaning that all dharmas are utterly non-existent. When a sentient being does not grasp in this way, he obtains the name 'Chan master.' With no slight grasping, non-grasping, or grasping, because nothing whatsoever is obtained among all dharmas, there is no recollection. If there is no recollection, one does not cultivate; if one does not cultivate, one does not realize—hence he is named a Chan master."
