須菩提。於意云何。恒河中所有沙佛說是沙不。如是世尊。如來說是沙。須菩提。於意云何。如一恒河中所有沙。有如是等恒河。是諸恒河所有沙數佛世界。如是寧為多不。甚多世尊。佛告須菩提。爾所國土中所有眾生。若干種心如來悉知。何以故。如來說諸心皆為非心。是名為心。所以者何。須菩提。過去心不可得。現在心不可得。未來心不可得。

"Subhūti, what do you think? Does the Buddha speak of the sand in the Ganges as sand?" / "So it is, Bhagavat. The Tathāgata speaks of it as sand." / "Subhūti, what do you think? If there were as many Ganges Rivers as there are grains of sand in one Ganges River, and there were Buddha-worlds numbering as many as the grains of sand in all these Ganges Rivers, would these indeed be many?" / "Very many, Bhagavat." / The Buddha told Subhūti, "As many sentient beings as there are in those lands, the Tathāgata completely knows their various kinds of minds. Why is this? The Tathāgata explains that all minds are not mind; this is called mind. Why is that? Subhūti, the past mind cannot be grasped, the present mind cannot be grasped, and the future mind cannot be grasped."
