### [6.32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.384.6.32)

「身如灰土糞，四大和合成，  
無風、水莊嚴，地大各自離，  
火滅在斯須，識無住處所，  
多罪積苦本，此是識所為；  
我今知識本，捨汝不有汝。  
五色玄黃綵，壞敗人心意；  
如人出入息，行法不久停。  
解知非常苦，無我彼中間；  
一音報萬億，興顯第一教。  
無常、苦、空身，曉了諸法相；  
一還住六淨，解空無相願。  
了身非我有，如佛教化眾；  
留身心識離，若佛無此神。  
云何分身化？隨前罪福報，  
各令充足願，今受後不受。  
現在亦如是，殺害父母罪；  
亦現亦不現，猶如拍毱報。  
神識之所染，或逆或變悔；  
一意向清淨，無為大導師。  
捨身去俗累，本無因緣法；  
其報如影響，如有亦不有。  
邪見言真實，癡網所纏裹；  
從黑還入黑，不別清白法。  
戒忍有五行，無畏無所懼；  
定力動大千，降魔如使兵。  
人求無上道，有退有進者，  
如河趣大海，往多達者少；  
遭遇大悲緣，善權渡彼岸，  
佛為一切智，無染無所著。  
我本行苦業，捨國、城、妻子；  
除父母、師長，不惜身體命。  
如人行曠野，渴乏須漿水；  
遇河泉池井，自濟無渴乏。  
人受四大身，有定不定處；  
況識無善惡，受報識明白。  
持戒七寶堂，天女數百萬；  
天樂自娛樂，念念無愁想。  
佛力一切智，遍潤一切人；  
先進五神通，甘露法自潤。  
稱揚四句義，無前、後、中間；  
法法然熾法，法性內外通。  
如我本所造，愛使之所縛；  
展轉五道中，以為屋舍堂。  
天道琢石光，尋究無有盡；  
盲龜浮木孔，時時猶可值；  
人一失命根，億劫復難是。  
海水深廣大，三百三十六，  
一針投海中，求之尚可得；  
一失人身命，難得過於是。  
奉律持戒人，處世難可值；  
於億千萬劫，佛如優曇花。  
有緣眾生等，受化於佛道；  
斷滅除結使，永盡無想著。」

> “The body is like ash, earth, and dung,  
> Formed by the combination of the four great elements;  
> Without the adornment of wind and water,  
> The earth elements separate from one another;  
> Fire is extinguished in an instant,  
> And consciousness has no place to abide.  
> The accumulation of manifold sins is the root of suffering;  
> This is created by consciousness.  
> Now I know the root of consciousness:  
> I cast you off and have no more to do with you.  
> The five colors—dark, yellow, and patterned silks—  
> Corrupt and ruin the minds of people;  
> Like a person’s inhalation and exhalation,  
> The conditioned phenomena do not linger long.  
> Understanding impermanence and suffering,  
> There is neither self, other, nor the interval between;  
> With a single sound responding to ten thousand billion,  
> He makes manifest the supreme teaching.  
> With an impermanent, painful, and empty body,  
> He clearly understands the characteristics of all phenomena;  
> Once returned, he abides in the six purities,  
> Comprehending emptiness, signlessness, and wishlessness.  
> He understands that the body is not his own possession;  
> Like the Buddha, he teaches and transforms the multitudes.  
> Leaving the body behind, the conscious mind departs;  
> If the Buddha did not possess such spiritual power,  
> How could he divide his body to teach?  
> According with their prior retribution of sin and merit,  
> He causes each to fulfill their vows,  
> Receiving retribution now and not hereafter.  
> The present is also like this:  
> The sin of killing father and mother  
> Both appears and does not appear,  
> Just like the bounce of a struck ball.  
> That which is tainted by mental consciousness  
> May be contrary or may transform into repentance;  
> With a single intent directed toward purity,  
> He becomes the great unconditioned guide.  
> Discarding the body and abandoning worldly burdens,  
> Phenomena are originally devoid of causes and conditions;  
> Their retribution is like an echo or a shadow,  
> Existing as it were, yet not existing.  
> Those with wrong views call it real,  
> Entangled in the net of delusion;  
> From darkness they re-enter darkness,  
> Failing to distinguish pure, white phenomena.  
> Precepts and patience have five practices;  
> Fearless, one has nothing to dread.  
> The power of samādhi shakes the great trichiliocosm,  
> Subduing Māra as if deploying troops.  
> Among people seeking the unsurpassed Way,  
> Some regress and some advance;  
> Like rivers flowing toward the great ocean,  
> Many set out, but few arrive.  
> Meeting with the conditions of great compassion,  
> Through skillful means one crosses to the other shore;  
> The Buddha is the All-Knowing One,  
> Unstained and unattached.  
> Originally I practiced austere deeds,  
> Renouncing kingdom, city, wife, and child;  
> Except for parents, teachers, and elders,  
> I did not spare body or life.  
> Like a person traveling in the wilderness,  
> Parched and in need of broth and water,  
> Encountering a river, spring, pool, or well,  
> He relieves himself, free from thirst.  
> When people receive a body of the four great elements,  
> There are fixed and unfixed places;  
> How much more so, as consciousness is without good or evil,  
> Receiving retribution, consciousness is distinct and clear.  
> In the hall of the seven treasures of upholding precepts,  
> There are millions of heavenly maidens;  
> They entertain themselves with celestial music,  
> From thought to thought free of sorrowful ideas.  
> The Buddha’s power of all-knowledge  
> Pervasively moistens all people;  
> First advancing with the five supernatural powers,  
> They are naturally moistened by the Dharma of amṛta.  
> Praising the meaning of the four verses,  
> Without before, after, or the interval between;  
> Phenomena are flaming, blazing phenomena,  
> Their Dharma-nature penetrating inside and out.  
> Just as in what I originally created,  
> Bound by the defilement of attachment,  
> Transmigrating through the five realms of existence,  
> I took them to be my rooms and halls.  
> The light of striking stone in the heavenly realm  
> Can never be completely investigated;  
> A blind turtle meeting a hole in floating wood  
> May still happen upon it from time to time;  
> Once a human loses the root of life,  
> In hundreds of millions of kalpas it is hard to regain it again.  
> The ocean water is deep and vast,  
> Three hundred and thirty-six \[yojanas\];  
> If a single needle is cast into the ocean,  
> Searching for it, it can still be found;  
> Yet once a human body and life are lost,  
> To regain them is harder than this.  
> A person who upholds the Vinaya and observes precepts  
> Is rarely encountered in the world;  
> In hundreds of thousands of millions of kalpas,  
> A Buddha is like the udumbara flower.  
> Sentient beings with the conditions  
> Receive transformation in the Buddha’s Way;  
> Severing and extinguishing defilements and fetters,  
> Forever exhausted, free from ideation and attachment.”
