English version: 'How is the severance of all Dharma teachings and instructions for learning?' The Buddha told Manjushri (Manjushri, name of a Bodhisattva): 'All Dharma teachings instruct sentient beings, but they do not come to diligently learn, do not study contemplation, do not pay attention, do not study during the six periods of day and night, and do not ask their neighbors. They cannot explain, cannot proclaim, have no wisdom, cannot distinguish, do not love, do not befriend good friends, are arrogant and conceited, stay away from teachings and instructions, and cannot attain liberation. This is called severance.' Manjushri Bodhisattva asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! How is the severance of all Dharmas, reaching the highest detachment?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All sentient beings are unwilling to learn various good Dharmas, only create evil deeds, do not befriend the virtuous, and have no wisdom. This is called severance.' Manjushri Bodhisattva asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! How is the severance that makes sentient beings difficult to teach and instruct?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'If sentient beings are not distracted, only diligently study the Dharma, befriend and make offerings, they will naturally go to seek teachings and the Dharma, and blessings and wisdom will arise. If sentient beings do not learn all Dharmas, only create evil karma, wanting to seek blessings and wisdom is impossible. This is called severance.' Manjushri Bodhisattva asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! How is the severance that allows sentient beings to attain all-knowing wisdom (sarvajna, the knowledge that is universal and complete about all things)?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All sentient beings diligently seek to learn the Dharma, and they can attain all-knowing wisdom. Arousing joyful minds and generating the practice of the Mahayana (Mahayana, a school of Buddhism), understanding one's own nature can lead to all-knowing wisdom. This is called severance.' Manjushri Bodhisattva asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! How is the severance that allows sentient beings to attain the perfection of all-knowing wisdom (sarvajna-jnana, the wisdom of knowledge that is universal and complete about all things)?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'The self-nature of all sentient beings, within their self-nature, is equal to the Tathagata's (Tathagata, an epithet of the Buddha) all wisdom. They completely understand the nature and phenomena of oneness. This is called severance.' Manjushri Bodhisattva asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! How is the severance that allows all sentient beings to reach the Bodhi field (bodhimanda, the place of enlightenment)?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'The Bodhi field only seeks the Buddha Dharma, the field of tranquility of all Dharmas, one' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version The Buddha said: 'If beings are born without cultivating meditation, without joy or delight, speaking falsely and perversely, with evil and violent natures, with many obstacles, without wisdom, and without loving or delighting in meditation even for a moment, this is called a 'stubborn phrase' (jue ju).' Manjushri (Manjushri, a Bodhisattva) asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Why is it said that all beings are fully endowed with greed?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All beings are fully endowed with craving, giving rise to many afflictions, without joy, not delighting in tranquility, not practicing equality, and without awakening to the nature of greed, unable to attain Bodhi (Bodhi, enlightenment), this is called a 'stubborn phrase'.' Manjushri asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Why is it said that all beings are fully endowed with anger?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All beings abide fully in anger, the nature of anger abides within them, they are completely endowed with it, this is called a 'stubborn phrase'.' Manjushri asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Why is it said that all beings are fully endowed with delusion?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All beings do not seek the Buddha's teachings, are full of arrogance, all their actions are not pure conduct, delusion dwells equally within them, the nature of delusion abides within them, they do not study Bodhi, this is called a 'stubborn phrase'.' Manjushri asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Why is it said that all beings are fully endowed with a body of delusion?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All beings, their bodies dwell in delusion, they do not recite all the Dharma, they do not believe in or read the scriptures, their nature is evil and hateful, they do not delight in the Mahayana (Mahayana, one of the Buddhist schools), they abide in the highest form of unwholesomeness, this is called a 'stubborn phrase'.' Manjushri asked the Buddha: 'World Honored One! Why is it said that all beings are fully endowed with wrong views?' The Buddha told Manjushri: 'All beings hold wrong views, take refuge in false ten-bodied Buddhas, do not take refuge truthfully, constantly commit the ten evils, practice the ten wrong views, do not awaken to the nature of wrong views, delight in wrong views, abide in the five desires, abide in greed, anger, and delusion, abide in obstacles, and are unable to attain Bodhi, this is called a 'stubborn phrase'.'
