English version: At that time, the Buddha told Bhikshu Sheng Yi (Shèngyì Bǐqiū): 'The Bodhisattva Silent Roots (Jìjìng Zhūgēn Púsà) understands all the supreme practices.' Bhikshu Sheng Yi, hearing what the Buddha said, joined his palms together and listened attentively, staying away from noisy places, dwelling in tranquility, and cultivating all the supreme practices. At that time, the Bodhisattva Silent Roots generated a vast and boundless mind, and in the royal city, he carried his alms bowl, guiding sentient beings, teaching from door to door, begging for food at the homes of elders, laypeople, and virtuous friends; wise people would rejoice and offer alms with praise, while some laypeople and virtuous friends would slander him with harsh words, but the Bodhisattva would not generate evil thoughts, speaking little, being content, truthful in word and deed, without anger in his heart, and with a kind and pleasant countenance; and those laypeople and virtuous friends would praise him for it. At that time, the Bodhisattva Silent Roots expounded the nature of material forms, but many Bhikshus did not understand, and instead fell into various wrong views, dwelling in secluded and small places, obstructed by greed and arrogance, unable to abide in peace; obstructed by anger and arrogance, unable to abide in peace; obstructed by ignorance and arrogance, unable to abide in peace; obstructed by attachment to all things, unable to abide in peace, and not listening to truthful words and deeds. The Bodhisattva Silent Roots also advised the laypeople and virtuous friends not to be attached to afflictions and not to create evil karma. However, the laypeople and virtuous friends were unable to practice patience, and instead went to places of greed, went to places full of greed, went to the east, west, south, north, the four intermediate directions, and the upper and lower directions, generating five kinds of slander; these five kinds of slander are love, joy, greed, anger, and ignorance, because their hearts are full of afflictions. At that time, the Bodhisattva Silent Roots taught in the royal city, telling the laypeople and virtuous friends, praising Bhikshu Sheng Yi, who is a true monk, whom people all offer alms to, but he does not now dwell in the royal city, but has returned to a quiet place to abide, and does not enjoy the incense and flower offerings of the monasteries, so many Bhikshus do not like to see him. This Bhikshu Sheng Yi is a true good friend, while those Bhikshus are deeply entrenched in wrong views, obstructed by greed, obstructed by anger, obstructed by ignorance, and unable to stay away from the obstacles of evil karma. Furthermore, the Bodhisattva Silent Roots said that those Bhikshus do not study good Dharma, do not practice all contemplations, do not study the profound and wonderful Dharma, and do not seek Bodhi.

根菩萨，为比丘僧，而说伽陀曰： “‘若有贪嗔痴， 不修菩提行， 菩提无贪性， 一切当远离。 愚夫不觉知， 耽着诸欲乐， 非寂静禅那， 不能趣佛国。 高傲于放逸， 功德无少分， 诸佛清净戒， 而生疑惑心， 贪恋造诸恶， 无佛法僧宝。 设若学文字， 心中多巧妙， 于真实菩提， 云何得解脱？ 丈夫学菩提， 无烦恼分别， 亲近佛观想， 得正见具足。 于法不能解， 众生堕邪见， 远离佛教法， 安住贪嗔痴。 不恭敬礼拜， 不亲近法师， 苦恼生分别， 无有忍辱心。 迷惑不自知， 愚痴作诸恶， 去佛道甚远， 不受人劝化。 疾速得菩提， 若人有忍辱， 平等解脱界， 超出世间眼。 一切悉智见， 观想忍辱法， 而得佛菩提， 于此安住故。 决定无魔事， 禅定力现前， 如是解脱已， 趣佛涅槃界。 众生勤学法， 实不可称量， 得不生不灭， 无贪瞋痴故。 历游诸聚落， 亦无分别心， 若有人毁谤， 不生瞋恨故， 或遇人赞叹， 亦无欢喜故， 安住佛菩提 现代汉语译本 根菩萨（Guna Bodhisattva），为比丘僧（bhiksu sangha）宣说了以下偈颂： ‘如果有人有贪（lobha）、嗔（dosa）、痴（moha），不修习菩提（bodhi）之行， 菩提是没有贪欲的，一切都应当远离贪嗔痴。 愚笨的人不觉悟，沉溺于各种欲望的快乐， 不通过寂静的禅那（dhyana），不能到达佛国（Buddha-kshetra）。 高傲且放纵，功德没有丝毫增长， 对于诸佛清净的戒律（sila），却生起疑惑之心， 贪恋而造作各种恶业，心中没有佛（Buddha）、法（Dharma）、僧（Sangha）三宝。 即使学习了很多文字，心中有很多巧诈， 对于真实的菩提，又怎么能得到解脱呢？ 大丈夫学习菩提，没有烦恼和分别， 亲近佛并观想，就能得到正见具足。 对于佛法不能理解，众生就会堕入邪见， 远离佛教的教法，安住在贪嗔痴之中。 不恭敬地礼拜，不亲近说法之法师（Dharma master）， 苦恼生起分别心，没有忍辱之心。 迷惑而不自知，愚痴地造作各种恶业， 离佛道非常遥远，不接受别人的劝化。 如果有人有忍辱之心，就能快速地得到菩提， 平等地进入解脱的境界，超越世间的眼界。 一切都用智慧去看待，观想忍辱之法， 就能得到佛的菩提，因为安住于此。 决定不会有魔事发生，禅定的力量就会显现， 像这样解脱之后，就能到达佛的涅槃（nirvana）境界。 众生勤奋学习佛法，其功德实在是不可称量， 能够证得不生不灭的境界，因为没有贪嗔痴。 游历于各个村落，也没有分别之心， 如果有人毁谤，也不会生起嗔恨之心， 或者遇到有人赞叹，也不会生起欢喜之心， 安住在佛的菩提之中。’

English version Guna Bodhisattva, for the bhiksu sangha, spoke the following gatha: ‘If one has greed (lobha), hatred (dosa), and delusion (moha), and does not cultivate the practice of bodhi, Bodhi is without greed; all should stay away from greed, hatred, and delusion. Foolish people are not aware, indulging in the pleasures of various desires, Without peaceful dhyana, one cannot reach the Buddha-kshetra. Arrogant and indulgent, merit has no increase, Towards the pure precepts (sila) of all Buddhas, they give rise to doubts, Clinging to and creating various evils, in their hearts there are no Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. Even if one learns many words, with much cunning in their heart, How can one attain liberation from true bodhi? A great person learns bodhi, without afflictions or discriminations, Drawing near to the Buddha and contemplating, one obtains perfect right view. Unable to understand the Dharma, sentient beings fall into wrong views, Staying away from the Buddha's teachings, they dwell in greed, hatred, and delusion. Not respectfully bowing, not drawing near to the Dharma master, Afflictions arise with discriminations, without patience and tolerance. Confused and unaware, foolishly creating various evils, Far from the Buddha's path, not accepting others' advice. Quickly attaining bodhi, if one has patience and tolerance, Equally entering the realm of liberation, transcending the eyes of the world. Seeing everything with wisdom, contemplating the Dharma of patience and tolerance, One can attain the bodhi of the Buddha, because of dwelling in this. Definitely no demonic events will occur, the power of dhyana will manifest, Having liberated in this way, one can reach the nirvana realm of the Buddha. Sentient beings diligently learning the Dharma, their merit is truly immeasurable, Able to attain the state of non-birth and non-death, because there is no greed, hatred, or delusion. Traveling through various villages, also without discriminating thoughts, If someone slanders, one does not give rise to hatred, Or if one encounters praise, one does not give rise to joy, Dwelling in the bodhi of the Buddha.’

， 一切悉平等， 佛法如虚空， 不可称量故。 无上佛菩提， 愚夫不了悟， 不修寂静观， 于此不解脱。 众生贪放逸， 无心学圣道， 驰骋诸欲乐， 与狂人无异。 愚痴不寂静， 不肯学菩提， 云何离业障？ 众生若了知， 远离诸欲乐， 专心习禅那， 众中为上首。 晓解一切法， 而行于正道， 常念佛菩提， 更无分别想。 真实心爱乐， 最上菩提道， 龙天皆欢喜。 安住佛功德， 于微妙法中， 不生诸恶想， 唯求佛菩提。 更不学余事， 故于此会中， 德行为上首。 我闻佛所说， 种种学外道， 营务作事业， 不如佛法中， 熏习诸善本。 彼爱乐眷属， 及贪恋资生， 不求佛菩提， 好世间荣贵， 无有刹那顷， 学如来正法。 多生分别心， 安住诸欲乐， 欲性本虚妄， 如阳焰空谷。 愚痴都不觉， 心常生我慢， 不赞佛菩提， 实无有知见。 不了法空义， 坚固执为有， 有为及无为， 一切悉平等。 众生若晓了， 勤修大乘行， 趣佛菩提道， 此非是凡 现代汉语译本 一切都平等无异， 佛法就像虚空一样，因为无法衡量。 无上的佛菩提（bó tí，觉悟），愚笨的人不能领悟， 不修习寂静的观想，因此不能从中解脱。 众生贪图放纵安逸，没有心思学习圣人的道， 奔波追逐各种欲望享乐，和疯狂的人没有区别。 愚蠢而不能安静，不肯学习菩提（bó tí，觉悟）， 怎么能够脱离业障呢？众生如果明白了这些， 远离各种欲望享乐，专心修习禅那（chán nā，禅定）， 在众人之中成为领袖。明白了解一切法， 而行走在正道上，常常想着佛菩提（bó tí，觉悟）， 更没有分别的念头。以真实的心爱慕喜乐， 最上的菩提道（bó tí dào，觉悟之道），龙天（lóng tiān，天龙八部）都会欢喜。 安住在佛的功德中，在微妙的佛法中， 不产生各种邪恶的想法，只求佛菩提（bó tí，觉悟）。 更不学习其他的事情，因此在这法会中， 德行成为最优秀的。我听闻佛所说的， 各种学习外道，经营事务， 不如在佛法中，熏习各种善的根本。 他们爱慕眷属，贪恋生活所需， 不寻求佛菩提（bó tí，觉悟），喜欢世间的荣华富贵， 没有哪怕一刹那，学习如来的正法。 多生出分别之心，安住在各种欲望享乐中， 欲望的本性是虚妄的，就像阳焰和空谷回音。 愚蠢的人都不觉悟，心中常常生起我慢， 不赞美佛菩提（bó tí，觉悟），实际上是没有知见。 不明白法空的意义，坚固地执着为实有， 有为法和无为法，一切都平等无异。 众生如果明白了这些，勤奋修习大乘的行， 趋向佛菩提道（bó tí dào，觉悟之道），这并非是凡夫

English version Everything is equally the same, The Buddha's Dharma is like the void, because it cannot be measured. The unsurpassed Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment), foolish people cannot comprehend, Not cultivating tranquil contemplation, therefore, one cannot be liberated from it. Sentient beings are greedy for indulgence and ease, with no mind to learn the path of the sages, Running after various desires and pleasures, no different from madmen. Foolish and unable to be tranquil, unwilling to learn Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment), How can one be free from karmic obstacles? If sentient beings understand this, Staying away from various desires and pleasures, focusing on practicing Dhyana (chán nā, meditation), Becoming the leader among the assembly. Understanding all Dharmas, And walking on the right path, constantly thinking of Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment), With no more discriminating thoughts. With a true heart loving and rejoicing, The supreme Bodhi Path (bó tí dào, path of enlightenment), dragons and gods (lóng tiān, the eight kinds of supernatural beings) will all rejoice. Abiding in the Buddha's merits and virtues, in the subtle and wonderful Dharma, Not generating various evil thoughts, only seeking Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment). No longer learning other things, therefore, in this assembly, Virtue and conduct become the most excellent. I heard what the Buddha said, Various learnings of external paths, managing affairs and creating businesses, Are not as good as in the Buddha's Dharma, cultivating various roots of goodness. They love their families, and are greedy for the necessities of life, Not seeking Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment), liking worldly glory and wealth, Not even for a moment, learning the Tathagata's true Dharma. Generating many discriminating thoughts, abiding in various desires and pleasures, The nature of desire is fundamentally illusory, like mirages and echoes in empty valleys. Foolish people are not aware, their minds constantly give rise to arrogance, Not praising Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí, enlightenment), in reality, they have no knowledge or insight. Not understanding the meaning of the emptiness of Dharma, firmly clinging to it as real, Conditioned and unconditioned Dharmas, everything is equally the same. If sentient beings understand these, diligently cultivating the practices of the Mahayana, Approaching the path of Buddha's Bodhi (bó tí dào, path of enlightenment), this is not an ordinary person -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 夫。 安住于法中， 得诸佛心印， 圆满功德业， 与佛无有异。 一念贪心起， 犯波罗夷罪， 贪心若不断， 为之所缠缚。 不肯护尸罗， 无禅定观想， 见佛不欢喜， 长夜造诸恶， 堕入地狱中， 受俱胝劫罪。 由是破戒故， 少法亦不解， 云何得菩提？ 与愚夫无异。 说若修福业， 其心不淳净， 不修大乘行， 无禅定观想， 此人如何得， 无上法王印？’
