English version: 'The Samadhi that is attained is not form (rupa), sensation (vedana), perception (samjna), volition (samskara), or consciousness (vijnana); this Samadhi is not a form that can be seen, nor a sound that can be heard, it does not abide in the state of having characteristics, nor does it abide in the state of cessation, it has no characteristic of a place, it is neither without characteristics nor a single characteristic. What is referred to as a characteristic is actually without characteristics, there is nothing that can act as its function. The characteristic of Samadhi itself has no characteristic and is also not without characteristics, this Samadhi should be practiced in accordance with this. Good man! This Samadhi is equal to all dharmas, if it is equal to all dharmas, it is also equal to me, if it is equal to me, it is also equally equal to all sentient beings. Therefore, good man! This Samadhi is equal to all sentient beings. Why? All sentient beings are the characteristic of emptiness, the characteristic of emptiness is the characteristic of Samadhi; all sentient beings are the characteristic of no-characteristic, the characteristic of no-characteristic is the characteristic of Samadhi; all sentient beings are the characteristic of no-desire, the characteristic of no-desire is the characteristic of Samadhi. All sentient beings and all dharmas are the characteristic of tranquility, the characteristic of tranquility is the characteristic of Samadhi. All sentient beings are the characteristic of no-self, the characteristic of no-self is the characteristic of Samadhi. The characteristic of Samadhi cannot be touched by the body, nor can it be touched by the mind, all touchable dharmas, whether equal or unequal, are all spoken for the sake of skillful taming.' At that time, the Bodhisattva Tianguan (Celestial Crown) then said to the Buddha: 'Rare is it, World Honored One! That this Mahavriksha Kinnara Raja (Great Tree Kinnara King), being in such a state of ease, is able to expound such profound and wonderful Dharma.' The Buddha said: 'Good man! Bodhisattvas are born from the ground of wisdom and skillful means, manifesting all actions, yet are not defiled by all actions. Good man! This Mahavriksha Kinnara Raja, with his zither music, various flute sounds, and beautiful songs, tames seventy billion Kinnaras (Kinnaras) causing them to abide in Bodhi (enlightenment), tames thirty billion Gandharvas (Gandharvas) causing them to be tamed on the unsurpassed path, his inner retinue of eighty-four thousand abide in all-knowing wisdom. He has such great skillful wisdom, good man! That is why I say: ‘This is the Bodhisattva, wherever he dwells, being in a great place, benefits sentient beings in all places.’ Good man! Just as without firewood, a fire cannot burn. Likewise, good man! The Bodhisattva in stillness is also like this.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: cannot fervently teach sentient beings. Good man! Just like a large pile of firewood, the fire will blaze. Good man! Bodhisattvas are also like this; being in a large crowd, their teaching will blaze. Good man! Therefore, you should know that Bodhisattvas reside in the most honored places, and wherever they are born, they greatly benefit sentient beings. Then, Tianguan Bodhisattva said to the Buddha: 'How does this Great Tree Kinnara-king (Kinnara-king, a non-human being, a type of musical deity) use the sound of the qin (a Chinese zither) and beautiful songs, as well as the sounds of various musical instruments, to teach sentient beings?' The Buddha told Tianguan Bodhisattva: 'Good man! Kinnaras, Gandharvas (Gandharva, celestial musicians), and Mahoragas (Mahoraga, great serpent deities) all love music. This Great Tree Kinnara-king is skilled at tuning the qin, harmonizing its sound with various musical instruments. These Kinnara assemblies, Gandharva assemblies, and Mahoraga assemblies, therefore, generate great love, joy, faith, understanding, and respect; having obtained this love, joy, faith, understanding, and respect, from these musical sounds emanate the sound of the Buddha, the sound of the Dharma, the sound of the Sangha, the sound of not forgetting the Bodhi mind, the sound of giving, the sound of precepts, the sound of patience, the sound of diligence, the sound of dhyana, the sound of wisdom, the sound of loving-kindness, the sound of compassion, the sound of joy, the sound of equanimity, the sound of the four foundations of mindfulness, the sound of the four right exertions, the sound of the four bases of miraculous powers, the sound of the five roots, the sound of the five powers, the sound of the seven factors of enlightenment, the sound of the Noble Eightfold Path, the sound of samadhi, the sound of wisdom, the sound of the samadhi of dhyana liberation, the sound of impermanence, the sound of suffering, the sound of non-self, the sound of tranquility, the sound of emptiness, the sound of signlessness, the sound of wishlessness, the sound of non-arising, the sound of non-origination, the sound of non-action, the sound of the Dharma contained within the Bodhisattva Dharma treasury, the sound of the complete Dharani Vajra-sentence Samadhi, the sound of the irreversible Dharma wheel, the sound of the king of all definitive Dharmas, the sound of the Ocean Adornment Samadhi, the sound of all Dharmas flowing into the Equality Samadhi, the sound of the Samadhi of Freedom over all Dharmas, the sound of the Adornment Wisdom Samadhi, the sound of the Treasure Abiding Samadhi, the sound of the Treasure Existing Samadhi, the sound of the Treasure Subduing Samadhi, the sound of the Treasure Torch Samadhi, the sound of the Delight Samadhi, the sound of the Lotus Adornment Samadhi, the sound of the Beyond Lotus Samadhi, the sound of the All-Pervading Samadhi, the sound of the All Dharmas White Lotus Samadhi, the sound of the Increasing Samadhi, the sound of the Great Swift Samadhi, the sound of the Lion's Swift Samadhi, the sound of the Sun Lamp Samadhi, the sound of the Immeasurable Rotation Samadhi, the sound of the Advancing Samadhi...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
