佛說仁王般若波羅蜜經 1.39

1.39

「大王！凡夫六識麤故，得假名青黃方圓等無量假色法；聖人六識淨故，得實法色香味觸一切實色法。眾生者，世諦之名也。若有若無，但生眾生憶念，名為世諦。世諦假誑幻化故有，乃至六道幻化，眾生見幻化，幻化見幻化，婆羅門、剎利、毘舍、首陀，神我等色心，名為幻諦，幻諦法無。佛未出世前，無名字，無義名；幻法幻化，無名字，無體相，無三界名字，無善惡果報六道名字。

"Great King! Because the six consciousnesses of ordinary beings are coarse, they apprehend immeasurable nominal dharmas of form, such as blue, yellow, square, and round under conventional designations. Because the six consciousnesses of noble persons are pure, they apprehend real dharmas: all real dharmas of form such as visible form, sound, fragrance, and touch. 'Sentient being' is a name in conventional truth. Whether existing or non-existing, what only arises from the conceptual memory of sentient beings is called conventional truth. Conventional truth exists because it is conventional, deceptive, illusory, and transformed, extending even to the six destinies being illusory and transformed, sentient beings seeing what is illusory and transformed, illusions seeing illusions, and Brahmans, Kṣatriyas, Vaiśyas, Śūdras, the ātman, and so forth, both form and mind, being called the illusory truth; in the illusory truth, dharmas do not exist. Before a buddha appears in the world, there are no names, no meaningful designations; illusory dharmas and transformations have no names, no substance or marks, no names of the three realms, and no names of good and evil retributions or the six destinies.
