仁王護國般若波羅蜜多經 1.24

1.24

"Great King! If a bodhisattva sees an object, sees wisdom, sees preaching, or sees reception, this is not noble seeing; it is the seeing of a foolish common person. The karmic retributions of sentient beings in the three realms are false and illusory: the various karmas created by discrimination in the desire realm, the karmas created by the dhyāna concentrations of the four form absorptions, and the karmas produced by the four formless concentrations—the karmic fruits of the three realms of existence are all completely empty, and the fundamental ignorance of the three realms is also empty. The uncontaminated arising and cessation of the noble stages, the residual habitual latencies of ignorance within the three realms, and the retributions of transformation-body existence are also all empty. When an equal-enlightenment bodhisattva attains the vajrasamādhi, the causes and effects of the two kinds of death are empty, and all-knowledge is also empty. When a Buddha's unexcelled awakening and knowledge of all modes are perfected, and analytical cessation, non-analytical cessation, and the truly pure dharmadhātu [are attained], their nature and characteristics are equal, and their functional applications are also empty."
