English version: 'Whether standing, sitting, lying down, or acting according to the Dharma.' Not I, Subhuti! Explain the meaning. What is the cause of this? The Tathagata, Subhuti! is said to be without going or coming, therefore he is called Tathagata, Arhat, Samyaksaṃbuddha. 'Furthermore, Subhuti! If a son or daughter of a good family were to make ink from all the dust of the three-thousand-great-thousand world system (Trisāhasra-mahāsāhasra-lokadhātu), even to the point of being countless, like the smallest particles. What do you think? Subhuti! Even so, are there many of these smallest particles?' Subhuti replied: 'Yes, yes! Lord! There are many of these smallest particles. What is the cause of this? Lord! Because they are a collection of particles, and you, Lord, did not say they are the smallest particles. What is the cause of this? Lord! If it is said that they are the smallest particles, it is because the Tathagata said they are not a collection of particles; therefore, they are called the smallest particles. If the Tathagata speaks of the three-thousand-great-thousand world system, it is because the Tathagata said it is not a boundary; therefore, it is called the three-thousand-great-thousand world system. What is the cause of this? Lord! Because they are a collection of boundaries, they are thus aggregated. If the Tathagata speaks of aggregation, it is because the Tathagata said it is not aggregation; therefore, it is called aggregation.' The Lord said: 'Aggregation is like this, Subhuti! It is not worldly language, it is unspeakable, neither Dharma nor non-Dharma, but the grasping of foolish ordinary people. What is the cause of this? If someone were to say: 'I see the Tathagata, the view of beings, the view of life, the view of persons, the Tathagata.' Then, Subhuti! Are they speaking correctly?' Subhuti replied: 'It is not so, Lord! It is not so, Sugata! What is the cause of this? Lord! If it is said that the view of self is spoken by the Tathagata, it is because the Tathagata said it is not a view; therefore, it is called the view of self.' The Lord said: 'It is just so, Subhuti! This is how the Bodhisattva (Bodhisattva) practices, one should know all dharmas, one should see all dharmas, one should understand all dharmas. Just like understanding, one should also abide in the thought of no-dharma. What is the cause of this?' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

？法想、法想者，善实！非想，此，如来说；彼故，说名法想者。若复时，善实！菩萨摩诃萨无量无数世界七宝满中作已，如来等、应等、正遍知等施与，若善家子，若善家女，若如是智慧彼岸到，乃至四句等偈，受持、分别、读诵，为他等及分别广说。此如是，彼缘，多过福聚生，无量、不可数。云何及广说？如不广说，彼故说名广说。 “星、翳、灯、幻、 露、泡、梦、电、 云，见如是， 此有为者。” 此语，世尊，欢喜上座善实，彼及比丘、比丘尼、优婆塞、优婆夷，彼天、人、阿修罗、乾闼婆等，闻世尊说，大欢喜。 归命一切佛菩萨海等！ 金刚能断般若波罗蜜经 现代汉语译本：‘法想’（对法的执着观念），‘法想’，善男子，实际上并非真实存在！这只是如来所说的；因为执着于‘法’，所以称之为‘法想’。如果，善男子，菩萨摩诃萨用无量无数世界的七宝充满，然后将这些布施给如来、应供、正遍知等，或者有善男子、善女人，如果能以这样的智慧到达彼岸，甚至只是受持、分析、读诵四句偈，并为他人解释和广泛宣说。这样的功德，比之前的布施所产生的福德还要多，无量无边，不可计数。为什么说‘广泛宣说’呢？因为不执着于‘广说’，所以才称之为‘广说’。 ‘星辰、眼翳、灯火、幻术、露珠、泡沫、梦境、闪电、云彩，应如此看待，这些都是有为法。’ 世尊说完这些话，上座善实非常欢喜，还有比丘、比丘尼、优婆塞、优婆夷，以及天人、阿修罗、乾闼婆等，听到世尊的教诲，都非常欢喜。 皈依一切佛菩萨海众！ 《金刚能断般若波罗蜜经》

English version: 'Dharma-thought' (the concept of attachment to Dharma), 'Dharma-thought,' good man, is not real! This is what the Tathagata says; because of attachment to 'Dharma,' it is called 'Dharma-thought.' If, good man, a Bodhisattva Mahasattva fills countless worlds with the seven treasures, and then gives these to the Tathagata, Arhat, Samyak-sambuddha, etc., or if a good man or good woman, with such wisdom, reaches the other shore, even if they only receive, analyze, read, and recite a four-line verse, and explain and widely proclaim it to others. This merit is more than the merit produced by the previous giving, immeasurable and countless. Why is it called 'widely proclaiming'? Because not being attached to 'widely proclaiming,' it is called 'widely proclaiming.' 'Stars, cataracts, lamps, illusions, dewdrops, bubbles, dreams, lightning, clouds, should be viewed in this way, these are all conditioned phenomena.' After the World Honored One spoke these words, the elder Subhuti was very happy, as were the Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, Upasakas, Upasikas, as well as the Devas, humans, Asuras, Gandharvas, etc., who, upon hearing the World Honored One's teachings, were all very happy. We take refuge in all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the ocean of beings!
