文殊师利菩萨问宝来曰:“众音如化,所作法无想,亦不可尽,故有自然。当以何脱之?”   宝来答曰:“有九法宝:一者自然无处亦如化;二者诸法无处亦如化;三者当来无处亦如化;四者诸所有世处亦如化;五者观过去处亦如化;六者观见诸法如幻耳,亦无有处亦如化;七者所见无处亦如化;八者得道无脱处亦如化;九者得于泥洹本无住处亦如化;是为九法可得脱慧。”   文殊又问:“过于泥洹皆亦自然,谁为是化本者?谁是化主者?化为有本无?化有所起处无?道为有处无?”   宝来答曰:“有九法知化无处:一者非道无处是则化、二者化非处无想是则化、三者化者无起化处无处是则化、四者非常名无有尽时是则化、五者化处无处是则化、六者于道无想是则化、七者化者于起无起是则化、八者化者于诸欲无有处是则化、九者化者于所度无所处是则化,是为九法知化本。”   于是文殊师利又说偈答曰: “十方无化者,  化化无有形,  一切无常宝,  是故为化主。  道者不化得,  亦不离其处,  所说无常形,  自然在其处。  诸宝从化得,  本离从无有,  其本同化生, ‘证悟者不会直接看待事物,所有存在的事物都是如此。各种解脱的数量是无限的,三界的范围是无法穷尽的。’ 文殊师利菩萨(Manjusri Bodhisattva,智慧的象征)问宝来(Bao Lai,人名)道:‘众生的声音如幻化一般,所作的法没有固定的想法,也是不可穷尽的,所以有自然的存在。应当用什么方法来解脱呢?’ 宝来答道:‘有九种法宝:第一,自然没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第二,诸法没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第三,未来没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第四,所有世间的事物没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第五,观察过去没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第六,观察所见诸法如幻象一般,也没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第七,所见之物没有固定的处所,也如幻化一般;第八,得道没有脱离的处所,也如幻化一般;第九,证得涅槃(Nirvana,佛教术语,指解脱)本来就没有固定的住所,也如幻化一般。这九种法宝可以获得解脱的智慧。’ 文殊菩萨又问:‘超越涅槃的境界也都是自然而然的,那么谁是幻化的根本?谁是幻化的主宰?幻化是有本源还是没有本源?幻化有所产生的处所吗?道是有处所还是没有处所?’ 宝来答道:‘有九种法可以知道幻化没有固定的处所:第一,非道没有固定的处所,这就是幻化;第二,幻化没有固定的处所,没有固定的想法,这就是幻化;第三,幻化没有产生幻化的处所,没有固定的处所,这就是幻化;第四,非常之物没有终结之时,这就是幻化;第五,幻化的处所没有固定的处所,这就是幻化;第六,对于道没有固定的想法,这就是幻化;第七,幻化对于产生没有产生,这就是幻化;第八,幻化对于各种欲望没有固定的处所,这就是幻化;第九,幻化对于所度化的众生没有固定的处所,这就是幻化。这九种法可以知道幻化的根本。’ 于是,文殊师利菩萨又说了偈语回答: ‘十方没有幻化者,幻化也没有固定的形状,一切都是无常的珍宝,所以是幻化的主宰。 证悟者不是通过幻化而得到的,也不会脱离其处所,所说的无常之形,自然就在其处所。 各种珍宝都是从幻化中得到的,其根本脱离于无有,其根本与幻化一同产生,’

'The enlightened do not see directly; all that exists is like this. The number of liberations is countless; the three realms are immeasurable.' Manjusri Bodhisattva (symbol of wisdom) asked Bao Lai (name of a person): 'The sounds of beings are like illusions, the Dharma that is practiced has no fixed thought, and is inexhaustible, therefore there is the natural. How should one be liberated from it?' Bao Lai answered: 'There are nine Dharma treasures: first, the natural has no fixed place and is like an illusion; second, all Dharmas have no fixed place and are like an illusion; third, the future has no fixed place and is like an illusion; fourth, all worldly things have no fixed place and are like an illusion; fifth, observing the past has no fixed place and is like an illusion; sixth, observing all Dharmas as illusions, also has no fixed place and is like an illusion; seventh, what is seen has no fixed place and is like an illusion; eighth, attaining the Dao (the Way) has no place to escape from and is like an illusion; ninth, attaining Nirvana (Buddhist term for liberation) originally has no fixed abode and is like an illusion. These nine Dharmas can attain the wisdom of liberation.' Manjusri Bodhisattva further asked: 'Beyond Nirvana, all is natural, then who is the root of illusion? Who is the master of illusion? Does illusion have a source or no source? Does illusion have a place of origin? Does the Dao have a place or no place?' Bao Lai answered: 'There are nine Dharmas to know that illusion has no fixed place: first, non-Dao has no fixed place, this is illusion; second, illusion has no fixed place, no fixed thought, this is illusion; third, illusion has no place to arise, no fixed place, this is illusion; fourth, the impermanent has no end, this is illusion; fifth, the place of illusion has no fixed place, this is illusion; sixth, for the Dao there is no fixed thought, this is illusion; seventh, illusion for arising has no arising, this is illusion; eighth, illusion for all desires has no fixed place, this is illusion; ninth, illusion for those who are liberated has no fixed place, this is illusion. These nine Dharmas can know the root of illusion.' Then, Manjusri Bodhisattva spoke in verse to answer: 'The ten directions have no illusion, illusion has no fixed form, all is impermanent treasure, therefore it is the master of illusion. The enlightened are not attained through illusion, nor do they depart from their place, the spoken impermanent form is naturally in its place. All treasures are obtained from illusion, their root departs from nothingness, their root arises together with illusion,'

是故人中尊。  欲者从化起,  法本无有是,  化而住五道,  无有见化主。  生死及五道,  与化不相连,  以世贪不断,  故现正觉耳。  如来及化主,  十方尊无极,  持化大其世,  世间无知者。  法轮无色转,  于化无转者,  系色有思想,  深法无转者。  想色化十方,  莫不受法者,  所施大智慧,  世间无说者。  诸欲及罗汉,  不逮觉是宝,  故于众会中,  广说无二宝。  智慧不可极,  光明最无有,  十方作桥梁,  所说无有二。  十方诸佛刹,  悉令为平等,  亦不使其人,  发意有异心。  十方诸法园,  一切法度垢,  亦不从世间,  于法无脱者。  于惠无有脱,  不见往来者,  于寂复见寂,  明中复见明。  法者非慧得,  自然本无是,  慧冥俱同合,  故无相识者。  痴慧不同合,  其慧众冥明,  所施但为法,  如华在高山。  诸恶不可极,  色欲不可尽,  泥洹及生死,  一切皆如是。  十方诸佛慧,  无知无觉者,  所以见净法,  故言世无有。”   昙摩菩萨复问宝来菩萨言:“于化无起离,谁为成主者?泥洹不生灭、不远五道,当来发意 现代汉语译本: 因此,他是人中最尊贵者。 欲望随着变化而生起,法的本质原本没有这些。 (众生)随着变化而停留在五道(地狱、饿鬼、畜生、人、天),没有谁能见到变化的掌控者。 生死和五道,与变化并不相连,因为世间的贪欲没有断绝,所以(佛)才显现正觉。 如来和变化的主宰,在十方世界都是至尊无上的,他们掌握着变化来扩大他们的世界,但世间却没有人知道。 法轮(佛法之轮)无形无色地运转,对于变化来说,没有谁能使它运转,执着于色相就会产生思想,深奥的佛法是没有谁能使它运转的。 思想和色相变化到十方世界,没有谁不接受佛法的,所施予的是大智慧,世间没有人能说清楚。 各种欲望和阿罗汉,都不能达到觉悟的珍宝,所以在众人集会中,广泛宣说没有第二个珍宝。 智慧是不可穷尽的,光明是最没有阻碍的,(智慧和光明)在十方世界架起桥梁,所说的道理没有第二个。 十方世界的各个佛刹(佛的国土),都使它们平等,也不使那里的人,产生不同的想法。 十方世界的各个法园,一切佛法都能去除污垢,也不从世间而来,对于佛法来说,没有谁能从中脱离。 对于恩惠来说,没有谁能从中脱离,也看不见往来的人,在寂静中又见到寂静,在光明中又见到光明。 佛法不是通过智慧就能得到的,它自然而然地本来就是如此,智慧和愚昧共同结合在一起,所以没有谁能相互认识。 愚痴和智慧不能共同结合,他的智慧照亮了众多的黑暗,所施予的只是佛法,就像花朵在高山上一样。 各种罪恶是不可穷尽的,**(此处原文缺失,无法翻译)也是不可穷尽的,涅槃和生死,一切都是如此。 十方诸佛的智慧,没有知觉,也没有感觉,所以能见到清净的佛法,所以说世间没有(能与之相比的)。' 昙摩(Dharma)菩萨又问宝来(Ratnakara)菩萨说:'对于变化没有生起和脱离,谁是成就它的主宰者?涅槃不生不灭、不远离五道,当来发菩提心(Bodhicitta)的人,

English version: Therefore, he is the most honored among people. Desires arise from transformation, but the essence of the Dharma originally does not have these. (Beings) abide in the five paths (hell, hungry ghosts, animals, humans, and gods) according to transformation, and no one can see the master of transformation. Birth, death, and the five paths are not connected to transformation, because worldly greed has not been cut off, so (the Buddha) manifests perfect enlightenment. The Tathagata (如来) and the master of transformation are supreme in the ten directions, holding transformation to expand their worlds, but no one in the world knows this. The Dharma wheel (法轮) turns without form or color, and no one can turn it for transformation. Attachment to form produces thought, and no one can turn the profound Dharma. Thoughts and forms transform in the ten directions, and no one does not receive the Dharma. What is bestowed is great wisdom, which no one in the world can clearly explain. Various desires and Arhats (罗汉) cannot attain the treasure of enlightenment, so in the assembly of people, it is widely proclaimed that there is no second treasure. Wisdom is inexhaustible, and light is most unobstructed. (Wisdom and light) build bridges in the ten directions, and the principles spoken have no second. All Buddha lands (佛刹) in the ten directions are made equal, and the people there are not made to have different thoughts. All Dharma gardens in the ten directions, all Dharmas can remove defilements, and do not come from the world. For the Dharma, no one can escape from it. For grace, no one can escape from it, and no one can see those who come and go. In stillness, one sees stillness again, and in light, one sees light again. The Dharma is not obtained through wisdom; it is naturally so. Wisdom and ignorance are combined together, so no one can recognize each other. Ignorance and wisdom cannot be combined together; his wisdom illuminates the many darknesses. What is bestowed is only the Dharma, like a flower on a high mountain. Various evils are inexhaustible, and ** (missing text in the original, untranslatable) is also inexhaustible. Nirvana (泥洹) and birth and death are all like this. The wisdom of all Buddhas in the ten directions has no knowledge or feeling, so they can see the pure Dharma, so it is said that there is nothing in the world (that can compare).' Dharma (昙摩) Bodhisattva (菩萨) then asked Ratnakara (宝来) Bodhisattva, 'For transformation without arising or leaving, who is the master of its accomplishment? Nirvana (泥洹) neither arises nor ceases, and is not far from the five paths. Those who will generate Bodhicitta (菩提心) in the future, --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

转住法轮净无诸垢,一切众生谁为度者?”   宝来答曰:“快哉所问!欲决一切生死之根,乃如是乎?菩萨有九法宝:一者于化化主无主;二者于泥洹与生死初无相知者;三者于生死于灭无灭;四者一切天上使不还生无生处;五者当起意未起意如处住;六者三千大千佛刹观了无得度者;七者于念无起处;八者悉使三千佛刹皆取泥洹意亦不喜,不取泥洹意亦不瞋,所以者何?诸法无处故;九者随愿取罗汉我悉令发意,若有发意求愿者,不令复还不起诸生无有还愿;是为九法。”又说偈言: “于可无不可,  于欲无所欲,  所度无见者,  法转无常处。  慧者无所说,  因度无往者,  故见大正法,  世之最无有。  道者无常名,  故为十方宝,  以得无得者,  生死无有道。  四马不可尽,  可意无有足,  世间悉乐之,  不舍不得道。  畏生无有脱,  不畏无脱者,  生死当举名,  立之为五道。  有报无答者,  可谓为是法,  法者本无二,  所有谛以觉。  无边亦无幅,  无极不可计,  本际如影响,  无有往来者。  于起无所起,  法无诸欲者,  生死本无处,  生死化如是。  于净无有净,  于垢无有垢,  悉为十方人, 现代汉语译本:‘法轮(Dharmachakra,佛法之轮)运转,清净无染,那么一切众生由谁来度化呢?’ 宝来回答说:‘您问得太好了!想要断绝一切生死轮回的根源,就应该这样发问吗?菩萨有九种法宝:第一,对于化生,视化主如同无主;第二,对于涅槃(Nirvana,解脱)与生死,最初就如同互不相识;第三,对于生死,没有所谓的灭;第四,一切天上的使者不再还生到没有生的地方;第五,当意念将要生起但尚未生起时,安住于如是之处;第六,观察三千大千世界(Trisahasra-Mahasahasra-Lokadhatu),了悟没有可以被度化者;第七,对于念头,没有生起之处;第八,即使让三千大千世界的众生都证得涅槃,内心也不会欢喜,不证得涅槃也不会嗔怒,这是为什么呢?因为诸法(Dharma,一切事物)没有固定的处所;第九,随顺众生的愿望让他们证得阿罗汉(Arhat,已解脱者),我都会让他们发起菩提心,如果有人发起菩提心并有所求愿,不会让他们退转,不再生起各种念头,也不会有还愿的想法;这就是九种法宝。’ 宝来又说了偈语: ‘对于可行的没有不可行的,对于欲望没有所欲望的, 所度化的众生没有能见者,佛法运转没有常住之处。 有智慧的人没有什么可说的,因为度化没有前往者, 所以能见到伟大的正法(Saddharma,真正的佛法),世间最为稀有。 道(Bodhi,觉悟之道)没有永恒不变的名称,所以是十方(Dasabala,十个方向)的珍宝, 因为得到了无所得,生死之中没有道路。 四匹马(象征感官)无法穷尽,可意的事物没有满足的时候, 世间众生都乐于其中,不舍弃就无法得道。 畏惧生死无法解脱,不畏惧也没有解脱者, 生死应当举出名号,立为五道(Gati,五种轮回的道途)。 有报应却没有回应者,这可以称之为是法(Dharma,佛法), 法(Dharma,佛法)的本质没有二元对立,所有真理都应以觉悟来认识。 没有边际也没有范围,没有极限无法计算, 本来的状态如同回声和影子,没有往来。 对于生起没有所生起,法(Dharma,佛法)没有各种欲望, 生死的本质没有处所,生死的化现就是这样。 对于清净没有清净,对于污垢没有污垢, 完全是为了十方(Dasabala,十个方向)的众生。’
