「復次菩薩摩訶薩入金剛三昧,能令三千大千剎土,變為七寶賙窮濟乏,求漿與漿求食與食,即便與說慳貪之果。夫人貪著,死入惡道餓鬼、畜生,貧窮裸跣衣不蓋形為人所憎,或為奴婢為人走使,或墮畜生荷負重擔。或時菩薩為說生天不婬之行,婬為穢惡死入惡道,刀山劍樹火車爐炭,鐵𭉨地獄,黑繩地獄,沸屎地獄,氷山碓臼受苦無量。或入蓮花優鉢獄中,風吹火炙骨節分離。菩薩於中與說無常,身非久居琢石見火,雷電過日幻化非一,何為受苦精神腐爛求出無期?如是菩薩為說真要,令受罪人盡得拔苦至無苦地,是謂菩薩摩訶薩以佛大慈三昧定意之所感動。」
"Furthermore, the bodhisattva-mahāsattva enters the vajrasamādhi, and is able to transform this trichiliocosm into the seven precious jewels to relieve the destitute and help those in lack: giving soup to those who seek soup, and food to those who seek food. Thereupon he expounds to them the retribution of stinginess and greed: 'If a person is greedy and attached, at death they fall into the evil destinies as hungry ghosts or animals, becoming poor, naked, and barefoot, with clothes that do not cover their forms, hated by others; or becoming slaves and servants driven by others; or falling among animals bearing heavy burdens.' Or at times the bodhisattva expounds for them the practice of non-licentiousness for being born in heaven: 'Licentiousness is vile and evil; at death one falls into the evil destinies—the Mountain of Knives, the Forest of Sword-Trees, the Fire-Cart, the Furnace of Embers, the Iron-Cauldron Hell, the Black-Rope Hell, the Boiling-Excrement Hell, the Ice-Mountain, and the Pestle-and-Mortar, where they suffer immeasurable pain. Or they enter the Lotus and Utpala Hells, where wind blows and fire scorches, their bones and joints separating.' Therein the bodhisattva expounds impermanence to them: 'The body does not abide for long, like striking a stone to see a spark, like thunder and lightning passing by, an illusion of manifold forms. Why endure suffering with your vital spirit rotting away, seeking escape without end?' In this way, the bodhisattva expounds the true essentials to them, causing those sinners to have all their suffering eradicated and to reach the stage free from suffering. This is called that which is moved and effected by the bodhisattva-mahāsattva's concentration of the Buddha's great benevolence."
