English version What is ignorance? Ignorance arises from nothing; observing ignorance, it does not exist. If it does not exist, then arrogance and delusion would have no basis. When people have no obscurations, their wishes have no obstacles. If one clings to emptiness, one creates false ignorance. The actions of ignorant people are the most difficult to achieve, because they are ignorant of all dharmas, taking delusions as dust. For example, if a person wants to cross the void, even after countless eons, they cannot, because they do not know the beginning and end of the void. Ignorance is the same. The origin of ignorance has nothing to discuss; obscurations and delusions do not produce dust, and do not accomplish anything. It is like wanting to cross the void without knowing the direction, having no tools, and being unable to cross, even after hundreds of thousands of eons, being accustomed to the obscuration of darkness, they will not be satisfied, and will not feel full. For example, a child blows air into a bubble, then releases their mouth, observing the bubble, and finding nothing. Sin and merit are like empty bubbles, yet people are accustomed to ignorance, pursuing the unattainable, harboring desires, thinking that ignorance has no bottom. Ignorance, having cut off its roots, has no form, no foundation, no dwelling, so it cannot be exhausted. Assuming that ignorance is difficult to exhaust, this is also impossible; it is like sentient beings, unreal like illusions. Suppose there is an analogy, the sentient beings of the three realms, daily liberating all beings, allowing them to attain Nirvana. The Buddha's lifespan, dwelling in the world for countless eons, is difficult to calculate, saving the common people, the number of people is also inexhaustible. Because of ignorance, various things are established, the human realm has no thought, delusion is like an illusion, it is unattainable. The Buddha and ignorance are equal, observing the two, there is no difference. If one can observe equally, one can contemplate the path. Ignorance and wisdom are equal, without obscurations and obstacles. The multitude of sentient beings, equally, have no discussions of ignorance. Ignorance is countless, the thoughts of the mind, the mind has no thoughts, has no boundaries. Ignorance and delusion are infinite, therefore unattainable. Aspirations and nature have no light, from where do they arise? Ignorance has already not arisen, to what category does delusion belong? Just as ignorance has no place, the Buddha's path is also like this, without boundaries or bottom, all dharmas have no difference. Differentiated sounds are equal, equally observing the sound of ignorance, understanding emptiness is equal. Ignorance and delusion are like clouds, differentiating equally, one can understand the meaning of meditation. This is how Bodhisattvas equally travel through ignorance. Furthermore, he told Pǔshǒu: ‘What is it that Bodhisattvas equally enter into non-virtue with discrimination?’ Wanting to act in the formless, anger has no place, not acting in ignorance, knowing that all beings are equal, all dust is equal, attaining liberation, emptiness, all is pure. This is how Bodhisattvas equally enter into all non-virtues with discrimination. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

又告溥首：“何谓菩萨等意游入诸善德本？众生修善，心行若干，诸行一行，常了平等，已知平等，众行如幻，别声一等，则了语音。是为菩萨等游众德。” 又告溥首：“何谓菩萨等意分别游入有为？所有无有，计不可量，无量难计，常晓平等，了无央数，无行无像，解脱等寂，睹一切安。是为菩萨等游有为。” 又告溥首：“何谓菩萨等意分别游入无为？本净法寂，亦无合会，无明假声，等察音声，无言无教，皆了无为，众着言声，等观如是。是为菩萨等游无为。” 又告溥首：“何谓菩萨等意分别游于平等？不处有为，不住无为，诸行平等，如空无碍。三界无本，何求泥洹？不出不入，乃至大安，度脱众生，解不若干，法身如空，不合不散。是为菩萨等游平等。” 世尊说斯章句之颂，顺如应时，不可思议。九万九千菩萨得不起法忍，七十二亿百千天人皆发无上正真道意，三百六十万比丘漏尽意解，六千比丘尼皆发无上正真道意。二千二百清信士、千八百清信女，皆发无上正真道意。 尔时溥首童真，白世尊曰：“唯愿，大圣！演三昧号，菩萨由斯而致至德，诸根明了。闻是三昧所因名号，则当获得一切法明靡不通达，而悉降伏一切迷惑邪见之众。乐一文字，分别晓了 现代汉语译本 佛陀又告诉溥首：‘什么是菩萨以平等心游入各种善德的根本？众生修习善行，心念各有不同，各种行为归于一行，常能明了平等，已经知晓平等，各种行为如同幻象，不同的声音归于一等，就能明了语音的本质。这就是菩萨以平等心游入各种善德。’ 佛陀又告诉溥首：‘什么是菩萨以平等心分别游入有为法？所有存在和不存在的事物，其数量不可衡量，无量难以计数，常能明了平等，知晓其无边无际，无形无相，解脱寂静，洞察一切安稳。这就是菩萨以平等心游入有为法。’ 佛陀又告诉溥首：‘什么是菩萨以平等心分别游入无为法？其本性清净寂静，没有聚合，没有虚妄的名称，平等地观察声音，没有言语和教导，都能明了无为的本质，众生执着于言语声音，菩萨平等地观察这些。这就是菩萨以平等心游入无为法。’ 佛陀又告诉溥首：‘什么是菩萨以平等心游于平等？不执着于有为法，不住于无为法，各种行为平等，如同虚空没有障碍。三界没有根本，为何要追求涅槃？不出生也不入灭，直至达到大安，度脱众生，理解没有差别，法身如同虚空，不合也不散。这就是菩萨以平等心游于平等。’ 世尊说完这些偈颂，顺应时机，不可思议。九万九千菩萨获得无生法忍，七十二亿百千天人都发起了无上正等正觉之心，三百六十万比丘漏尽意解，六千比丘尼都发起了无上正等正觉之心。二千二百清信士、一千八百清信女，都发起了无上正等正觉之心。 这时，溥首童真对世尊说：‘唯愿，大圣！演说三昧的名称，菩萨由此而达到至高的德行，诸根明了。听到这个三昧的名称，就能获得一切法明的通达，并且降伏一切迷惑邪见的众生。乐于一个文字，分别明了。’

English version Then the Buddha said to Pǔshǒu (普首, a Bodhisattva): 'What does it mean for a Bodhisattva to enter into the roots of all virtues with an equal mind? When sentient beings cultivate good deeds, their minds act in various ways, but all actions are unified into one, they constantly understand equality, they already know equality, all actions are like illusions, different sounds are unified into one, then they understand the essence of speech. This is how a Bodhisattva enters into all virtues with an equal mind.' Then the Buddha said to Pǔshǒu: 'What does it mean for a Bodhisattva to enter into conditioned phenomena with an equal mind? All that exists and does not exist is immeasurable, countless and difficult to calculate, they constantly understand equality, they know it is boundless, without form or image, liberated and tranquil, and they perceive all peace. This is how a Bodhisattva enters into conditioned phenomena with an equal mind.' Then the Buddha said to Pǔshǒu: 'What does it mean for a Bodhisattva to enter into unconditioned phenomena with an equal mind? Its nature is pure and tranquil, without aggregation, without false names, they observe sounds equally, without words or teachings, they understand the essence of unconditioned phenomena, sentient beings are attached to words and sounds, Bodhisattvas observe these equally. This is how a Bodhisattva enters into unconditioned phenomena with an equal mind.' Then the Buddha said to Pǔshǒu: 'What does it mean for a Bodhisattva to abide in equality with an equal mind? They are not attached to conditioned phenomena, nor do they dwell in unconditioned phenomena, all actions are equal, like the void without obstruction. The three realms have no root, why seek Nirvana? They neither arise nor cease, until they reach great peace, liberating sentient beings, understanding without difference, the Dharma body is like the void, neither united nor dispersed. This is how a Bodhisattva abides in equality with an equal mind.' After the World Honored One spoke these verses, which were timely and inconceivable, ninety-nine thousand Bodhisattvas attained the forbearance of the non-arising of phenomena, seventy-two billion hundred thousand devas all aroused the mind of unsurpassed, true, and complete enlightenment, three million six hundred thousand Bhikkhus attained the exhaustion of outflows and liberation of mind, six thousand Bhikkhunis all aroused the mind of unsurpassed, true, and complete enlightenment. Two thousand two hundred laymen and one thousand eight hundred laywomen all aroused the mind of unsurpassed, true, and complete enlightenment. At that time, Pǔshǒu, the pure youth, said to the World Honored One: 'May it be so, Great Sage! Please expound the name of the Samadhi, by which Bodhisattvas attain the highest virtue, and their faculties become clear. Upon hearing the name of this Samadhi, they will attain the understanding of all Dharmas without obstruction, and subdue all beings with delusion and wrong views. They delight in one word, and understand it clearly.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: 'All scriptures can be understood by using any one scripture to understand another. The wisdom of eloquence is inconceivable. They explain the Dharma to all beings, clearly distinguishing the Dharma-patience of dependent origination, entering into the one true form through all practices, attaining immeasurable and limitless meanings, and understanding the meaning of consciousness and the four analytical eloquences.' Then, the World Honored One said to Bodhisattva Pu Shou (a Bodhisattva's name): 'Listen carefully! Think well! Now I will explain the root and branches for you.' Pu Shou replied: 'Very good! I am very eager to hear.' The Buddha said: 'There is a Samadhi (meditative state) called 'Separation from Immeasurable Defilements.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can universally see all forms as pure.' The Buddha told Pu Shou: 'There is a Samadhi called 'Embracing Various Aspects.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, the light of wisdom will cover the light of all suns and moons. There is a Samadhi called 'Accomplishing Complete Light.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, their majestic radiance will cover Indra (a deity's name) and Brahma (a deity's name), and the darkness of the three realms (desire realm, form realm, formless realm) will all be at peace, and the light of the heavens will suddenly disappear. There is a Samadhi called 'Abandoning the Realm.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can eliminate all diseases of lust, anger, and ignorance while in the assembly. There is a Samadhi called 'Unsurpassable.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can illuminate all the Buddha lands in the eight directions, above and below. There is a Samadhi called 'All Dharmas are Unborn.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can grasp all the Buddha's teachings and scriptures, and explain them to the assembly. There is a Samadhi called 'Remembering the Thunderous Sound.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, their voice will reach the Brahma heavens. There is a Samadhi called 'Understanding All That Pleases the Mind.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can please beings and liberate them according to their desires. There is a Samadhi called 'Joyful Diligence Without Meeting.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can directly see the unconditioned, without limit, and all confusion from beginning to end will be understood, and nothing heard or seen will be misunderstood. There is a Samadhi called 'Non-Thought Treasure Virtue Joy in the World.' If a Bodhisattva attains this Samadhi, they can manifest various spiritual powers to teach beings.
