菩薩從兜術天降神母胎說廣普經 4.12

4.12

"Consciousness is the root of birth and death, / And also the path to nirvāṇa. / Resting midway in the womb, / It roams playfully in immeasurable realms. / Taking birth through the four forms of life in the Buddha-land, / Subduing through the sixteen divine powers; / The path originally without a single mark, / The vows [of the Buddhas] are each the same. / Because sentient beings are bound and attached, / They appear as superior or inferior persons; / Formless and invisible, / It can only now be observed. / The bodies of past Buddhas / Have bequeathed teachings that are boundless; / The unsurpassed Dharma of the eightfold path / Single-mindedly delivers all beings. / The forms of the scriptural Dharma and śarīras, / Their divine powers are spread abroad through the world. / What I now lead and bring along / Has heard what is inconceivable. / The divine, treasured stūpas of the six Buddhas, / The treasure storehouses and seven-jeweled terraces: / Discerning each and every one deeply, / The flavors of their meaning are immeasurable. / The path originally traversed by the Buddhas / Is like empty space, without attachment; / Now abiding in the divine mother's womb, / Those receiving transformation are not just of one kind. / Attaining the Buddha's nature of tathatā, / They also abide in accordance with dharmatā. / Dispelling minds of pride, / I now pay homage to the nature of emptiness. / The light of each and every śarīra / Universally illuminates all Buddha-realms; / Those receiving transformation are like the sands of the Ganges: / This is the evocative power of the Buddha's divine virtue. / The realm is far from here; / Having received the Buddha's path of nectar, / I now wish to return to my original country / To proclaim and propagate the Tathāgata's Dharma."
